Event Details

Since Americans took to the highways for long-distance travel in the 1920s, entrepreneurs have been dreaming up unusual structures to attract passing motorists, from 30-foot Paul Bunyan statues to giant balls of twine. Join pop culture historian Leslie Goddard, Ph.D., to explore these unique structures and what they tell us about the history of road travel.
