There's no way for me to know what business actually got the Roto-Sphere. Milks business cards only show which sign shop these signs were shipped to. I'd love to know if you find out anything. I'm traveling right now so I don't have the info in front of me. But if you want, I can look up the sign shop when I get home (another week).

Your map claims one of these was shipped to Seattle. I live just outside Sealle - if only I knew what business got it. I'll have to drive out old Highway 99 one of these days and see more of the old motels.

You're very welcome! One of the high points of 2007 for me was meeting and getting to know the history of these signs. It's a miracle that these bits of film were saved -- and my pleasure to share them with the world. Photos of these signs just don't do them justice.
