This picture is from Wayne Silvius and it is just one of many cool things at the Joliet Area Historical Musuem. They keep adding more exhibits. If you have never been, I recommend taking a trip. If you have not been in a year or two, it is worth checking out to see what is new!
The Joliet Area Historical Museum recently acquired a 1928 Lincoln Highway marker, one of the ones the Boy Scouts erected. That was thanks to the work of John Weiss. It was unveiled on November 11th, 2006, coinciding with the 80th birthday of Route 66. Road Dog has a story about the events that day on the American Road Magazine messages Web site.

Definitely a place you want to put on your agenda if you go to Joliet. And, they keep adding stuff continually and feature the Lincoln Highway as well as Route 66.
Check out the original LH marker with its very rare original medallion.
