U.S. Route 66 was established November 11, 1926, marketed as the best route from Chicago to the California coast — this ceramic souvenir mug from the 1980s–1990s captures the road's mythology with the classic "Route 66 Mother Road" design. America's Main Street, on a mug that looks like it's done the whole drive.

It's a natural gift for a road tripper, an Americana collector, or anyone who's ever felt the particular pull of the open road.
Route 66 has been embedded in American mythology since its founding — through the Dust Bowl migrations of the 1930s, the postwar road trip era, and decades of books, films, and songs — and this mug's winged cars set against the bold Route 66 sign capture that spirit perfectly.
