Googie Tuesday, Part 11 (Inaugural Edition?)

Slightly in honor of, but really having nothing to do with Inaugural Tuesday, I present a Googie Two-fer! The above is a spectacular rotosphere decked out in patriotic red, white and blue. (See?? Slight relevance!!)

The below is quite Googie, not at all patriotic, not really that space-y looking, but very familiar to me, as it resides in Dunsmuir, California, just down Interstate 5 from my home town of Mount Shasta. (I believe it’s called the Hitching Post.) I saw it in a sea of southern California Googie and chuckled.
