Enjoy an eye-popping gander at the fantastic North American roadside motels of the 1950s, 60s and 70s. I am an accumulator of motel postcards, and I've made it my life's work to share them with you here.

El Camino Motel - Socorro, NM
I dropped a crisp $6 on this one at a postcard show last weekend just to have a snap of that sign in my house. Anyone out there ever do any damage at the "El Matador Lounge" on your trips through Socorro?
The motel is gone (it's now just the El Camino Family Restaurant) but it's a breath of fresh air to find that they kept the original sign in perfect condition. Just google 707 N California St, Socorro, NM.
