Eight images by photographer Shannon Richardson will be displayed in one of the rooms of the historic Munger Moss Motel in Lebanon, Mo., he said in an e-mail.
The series of images above is what the Munger Moss ordered. Richardson said on his blog:
This selection of prints are from my upcoming book Route 66 American Icon. So if you happen to be planning a stay at the motel, ask for my room and check them out.
Richardson is based in Amarillo, Texas. According to his book’s website, the black-and-white images were taken over the past few years on Route 66. The book is slated for a fall release.
A few of Richardson’s Route 66 photos can be seen here.
The Munger Moss contains several themed rooms that display artwork from notable Route 66ers or are inspired by prominent roadies, such as Michael Wallis.
