Route 66 Icons And Their Presence On Our Commercial Items

By Ora Dickson


Route 66, which is also known as US 66 is both a historical and meaningful area for Americans and people abroad. It no longer exists today but the influence it has to the modern generation is visible. We see a number of products with different patterns of prints, reminding us of its once popular existence.

If trying something new is your bet for this season, then there is something good that you can do. You can either create them yourself or buy those ready made products with route 66 icons printed on them. Collection can take some time, but if you have an idea on where to start, then it will be easier. So let us drop by our list and check the top collectible items with this design.

Let us begin with the most popular one we have, the t shirts. If you have seen anyone wearing a shirt that has a huge ROUTE 66 logo in front, then you are looking at a potential collectible. Along the emergence of affordable printing all over the country, everyone now has an access to personalizing their things. One of these is the t shirt. So if you want to see yourself with the huge sixty six print, go ahead and have one printed for yourself.

Second, are the cute and colorful pins. Maybe you do not want to collect for long. Maybe, you just want to collect now so that you can give it to persons later on during a big, special event. That is fine. The best thing about pins is that, you can keep them. You can order them in bulks and have the maker customize the design. It is a nice memorabilia.

Third, are the pens. When we see pens printed with popular logos such as that of Starbucks or Nike, we get the idea of what they are for. They serve as promotional products. And since they are promotional, they are free. Customizing our own however, can add meaning to it. You may choose to use the pen while working or you can place it somewhere safe and visible for your friends to see. And yes, a 66 print is a nice pick.

Four, the pendants. Let us not limit our thoughts to ruby and diamonds and explore a more creative way of making our necklaces unique. Customized pendant designers know this. So it should not come as a surprise if we see a lot of unique, even bizarre pendant designs in stores. Someone out there just had his creativity tapped.

Fifth, are stickers. Stickers are awesome collection because they are affordable, unique, customizable and attractive. You may choose to have the glossy ones made for a special set of Route 66 or the ordinary ones for display.

Take a quick tour on small accessory stores in the city. Observe their designs. Some symbols that you claim to be unrecognizable may actually be popular in the past. The next time you see the the US 66 design, you know what it means.

Give tribute to this historical place and let your creativity out. You would not know how good your imagination is until you do it. Give it a try now.
