{"product_id":"old-route-66-family-restaurant-sign","title":"Old Route 66 Family Restaurant Sign Black and White Photography","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA Shield Shaped Sign and Arrow Against Clouds\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe large left pointing arrow gives this restaurant sign an immediate sense of direction. I photographed it during my travels along Route 66, looking upward so the sign’s shield shape stands against the cloudy sky. The words “Old Route 66 Family Restaurant” occupy most of its pale face, with a smaller message below pointing travellers toward food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lettering mixes flowing script with large block capitals, giving the sign several different rhythms within one shape. I like how the small Route 66 shield fits between the words at the top, while the broad arrow anchors the lower portion. Around the edge, chipped areas and uneven marks add texture to the outline. The angled view also shows the sign’s depth along its right side, and the supporting pole enters from the bottom of the square frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn black and white, the bright face and darker lettering remain clear against the changing tones of the clouds. My framing gives the sign room to stand on its own while keeping enough sky to show its roadside scale. For a Route 66 enthusiast, a kitchen or a room with an Americana theme, this photograph offers a familiar kind of travel marker with a strong graphic shape. The readable lettering attracts attention first, and the weathered border and cloud detail provide smaller things to notice afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2022\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"10 × 10 inches (25.4 × 25.4 cm)","offer_id":40737307787343,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 12 inches (30.5 × 30.5 cm)","offer_id":40737307820111,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14 × 14 inches (35.6 × 35.6 cm)","offer_id":40737307918415,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 16 inches (40.6 × 40.6 cm)","offer_id":40737307852879,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 × 18 inches (45.7 × 45.7 cm)","offer_id":67602043043919,"sku":null,"price":64.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 × 20 inches (50.8 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40737307885647,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28 × 28 inches (71.1 × 71.1 cm)","offer_id":41185217118287,"sku":"","price":105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Old-Route-66-Family-Restaurant-Sign-Black-and-White-Photography-1.jpg?v=1792060011","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/old-route-66-family-restaurant-sign","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
