So i went on a road trip from pittsburgh PA to phoenix AZ not relatively long ago. We had to pass through Tulsa on I-44 at one point but with the construction going on around the OK-66 interchange, I ended up screwing something up and we ended up on OK-66 through new sapulpa rd around that area. I remember very specifically that on that road there was a business using a real (or at least a stunningly accurate replica of a) california-esque US-66 button copy freeway sign inside of their business sign but i cant for the life of me remember the exact spot where it was. I’m certain it was in that spot but i wasn't able to find it on google maps. With a long road trip like that, though, it’s possible I was just going crazy haha. Does anyone know what I’m talking about????

You can't mention button copy and Tulsa together without mentioning these signs.

Unless they have been removed in the last year, yes.

It's an auction business, so they probably got it through the usual means that auction businesses get things.

If you want one...Got $3495? (Yes, they're serious. Yes, that's how much they usually cost.)
