Description
Pontiac, Illinois, is situated on iconic Route 66 about 100 miles from the Chicago starting point of “America’s Mother Road”. Picturesque Pontiac is home to many attractions including the Pontiac-Oakland Auto Museum and the Route 66 Hall of Fame, which features thousands of artifacts, photos and memorabilia related to Route 66. Many town structures are adorned with first-class wall murals – like the one on the wall of the Route 66 museum.
I created this nighttime fantasy scene starting with a recent daytime winter photo of the Route 66 mural and added the ’56 Mercury Montclair captured at a Minnesota car show. I also transplanted an original brick section of Route 66 still in use in the Springfield, Illinois area.
•• Mother Road and Mercury aficionados would love a 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle, framed print, coffee mug or tote bag. Visit Ron-Long.pixels.com for MANY other satisfaction-guaranteed products.
