A rectangular metal sign, likely lithographed tin, featuring a collage of American road trip imagery. The central design depicts a yellow 1930s-style hot rod coupe driving on a winding grey road through a landscape of evergreen trees and snow-capped mountains. Positioned above the vehicle is a large black and white highway shield inscribed ROUTE US 66, accompanied by a bald eagle in flight. To the right, a yellow diamond-shaped road sign is printed with the text THE MOTHER ROAD, and the car’s windshield bears a banner reading CRUISING U.S.A. The entire graphic is contained within a thin yellow pinstripe and a wide dark blue border. The sign is fitted with four pre-drilled mounting holes, one at each corner. At the bottom right corner, a printed mark reads ©2004. A small white rectangular adhesive label is affixed to the top right corner of the border.
