The Art of Reno’s Old Motel Signs
I literally took thousands of photos on our road trip, 3322 to be exact. Most were of abandoned buildings and killer vintage signs, which are my two favorite things to photograph, and our road trip was full of them! So much so my photos are coming to you in three, yes, three, separate posts! First up I’m sharing the sights of Reno! Now, if you follow me on Instagram and checked out any of my stories while we were on the road, you may have seen me fawning all over some of these signs, and I am so happy to finally share them with you in all of their glory in this post!
Most of the signs you’ll see are from motels, and I’ve even included some images of the actual buildings if the building was cool too!
If you liked this, there will be another signage post in the near future! So stay tuned!

I lived in Reno for a year and they have some awesome old signs!! Glad you got to check out the town.
Yay! Reno is my home town. I love the signs down around 4th. It’s an area that’s starting to revive. I hope the signs remain. <3 They're such a part of this funny little city's history.
We moved to Reno a few months ago, I wish I had known you were here!
Really!? I tried to text you before we arrived in Vegas, but got no response – I suppose you changed your number?
The “Sandman” was one of my favorites. The “Silver State” cabin motel was another but it’s gone.
