Hitching Post Motel Sign on Route 11 in Roanoke, Virginia

by John Margolies

Time travel back to the golden days of American car trips with this stunning documentary photograph taken by John Margolies. This photograph features the renowned Hitching Post Motel sign, which is a classic Western style sign located on the historic Route 11 in Roanoke, Virginia. With its bold signage, commercial folk art, and neon aesthetics, it embodies everything about roadside architecture during the middle of the 20th century.

John Margolies devoted his life to documenting the disappearing vernacular architecture in the USA, and this work is nothing less than a tribute to quirky independent motels. Its vivid colors and exquisite details make it an absolutely perfect item for any collection related to Americana, architectural history, and travel photography.
