Motel Googie

Doncha just love the cleanliness, color and optimism in this painting? Real fresh and breezy, like that strip of paper the maid put around the toilet lid. It comes from James Lileks’ work-in-progress Motel Postcards site. He’s planning to post vintage cards and witty commentary from all 50 states throughout the year.

    LILEKS IS GOD.

    He rules in so many ways. THanks for the link!

  2. Lileks Says:

    Ahhh, he’s a hack! Totally overrated.

    (Thanks for the link, Matt - and thanks to Nancy as well. I am indeed God, and to prove it I will now make milk appear in your fridge. Go look. I’ll wait.

    See?)
