Welcome to a visual archive of American hospitality. My forthcoming book, Retro Roadtrips, chronicles the evolution of the American stay through an unparalleled collection of vintage postcards.

For generations, these establishments were more than just places to sleep. They were destinations, landmarks, and essential threads in the fabric of the American road trip. This collection captures that history in vivid detail, showcasing the grand design of early hotels, the mid-century modern aesthetic of the classic motel, and the rustic charm of the secluded inn.

Whether you are a historian, a designer, a lover of Americana, or someone who cherishes the romance of the open road, this book offers a unique and nostalgic look at the places that welcomed travelers for seventy years.
