I found a cutout! (sorta)

In Wildhorse BBQ just south of Sallisaw, OK.  It's right on a (very) recently bypassed stretch of US 59, so the sign is fitting.



Here's a pic without flash.  I had to adjust the levels quite a bit because the picture was very dark.



The BBQ was good, and very reasonably priced.  A true hole in the wall BBQ joint.

Beautiful sign.

Hodad's in San Diego has a Hawaii 11 cutout hanging on the wall beyond the register. Have never gotten a photo of it though...

Pizza by Stout in Joplin, MO has a Missouri US 136 cutout and a California-style US 61 cutout.  They have a second 136 shield that appears to be a pasted over US 40.

can you get some photos please?

I'm guessing the 61 looks like this 40:

that's the freeway standard from the late 50s.  Not quite the same shape as a California cutout, but the same legend for sure.

Similar, but a little wider at the "neck" .

As far as photos, I'll try to remember to ask permission next time I'm up that way.

heh so MO also used the "wider around the neck" style?  didn't know that ... though for all I know we have an example in the gallery, and I personally uploaded it, and I just plain don't remember.

[agentsteel53]

in fact ... we sure do.
