  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Happy Motoring! - Exxon, Esso and Enco, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

  There are a couple of these Motels still left and in operation, like this one in Holbrook, AZ on US Rt. 66.

  This is a popular image. Glad to see the Library of Congress has the negative. (maybe that's why it's so popular). There is a lot of detail here that I've never seen in the other copies.
  
  Viewers may visit the Wigwam Village Motels Group and see more history and a link to a map of all seven that existed. The one pictured here is still in business today and is the oldest of the 3 left. The other two are on Route 66 in Holbrook Arizona and San Bernardino CA.
