I'm in Paducah, Ky, today, shooting photos of signs and architecture along the various blue highways. I very much doubt any tiki has emerged here, but would anyone know of any surprises along that line? I've already found some halfway decent googie. Thanks! |

But it's an interesting city. One can find two examples of non-geodesic commercial dome architecture (now a barber shop and a motel room), a run-down stucco teepee that used to be a liquor store, two old theatres, blocks of well-preserved Art Deco, Italianate and Classical Revival downtown architecture, murals that commemorate the "Atomic City" era, bits of newer buildings with googie influence, a pizza place in a well-preserved boomerang-roofline Big Boy, a decades-old family bar-b-que place, an Art Deco Coca-Cola plant and an eccentric costume shop with a Buster Brown neon sign and a small collection of antique wax mannequins. |
