Museum of Route 66 in the Chicago area. Photos, maps, and memorabilia. It's in one room, free, and interesting.

What sets this apart from other Route 66 museums is its exhibit on "Spindle," the cars-on-a-spike sculpture that stood for years in a Berwyn parking lot -- and which may some day stand again (The cars have been saved).
