Bank Club Cafe Sign on Rts. 6 & 50 in Ely, Nevada

by John Margolies

Taken in 1980 by the renowned photographer of roadside architecture John Margolies, this photograph reveals the retro appeal of the Bank Club Cafe signage found along Routes 6 and 50 of Ely, Nevada. The location is famously called “The Loneliest Road in America,” and it features the colorful Americana that embodies the characteristics of the typography and commercial design during the late 20th century in Nevada.

Through the work of Margolies, the Library of Congress preserves these unique examples of vanishing roadside America.
