If you love Americana, Disney's Cars or anything Rt. 66, Angel & Vilma's Original Route 66 Gift Shop is a MUST see! Our family traveled the entire Rt.66 from Albuquerque, NM to Needles, CA and this was by far our favorite stop. Angel's son in-law Mauricio greeted us when we walked in, asked where we were from and invited us to explore all around the store. While some stops on 66 would not speak to us, and acted like our even being there was a bother, Mauricio made us feel at home and welcomed. He loved that our family respected and loved the magic, beauty and nostalgia of the old Mother Road. All of that past and present American greatness has been persevered in this classic family fun shop on 66. Our family first found out about this gem while searching for Rt.66 content on YouTube. We found Justin Scared's RandomLand channel that showcased this American Icon and we knew we had to visit. I will include a few pictures, but nothing does this slice of American pie justice like actually stepping back in time and meeting Mirna, Clarissa and Mauricio! I want to say Thank You to the entire Delgadillo family for welcoming my family and for preserving an iconic moment in Great American History. So jump in the family Truckster, put on "Get Your Kicks On Rt. 66", and head down the Mother Road to Angel & Vilma Delgadillo's Original Route 66...

We had a long conversation with them about their father and the history of the store, Seligman, and his impact on Route 66.
This is a fantastic store. it's a great place to look around, especially Angel's Barber Shop. There are great shirts, magnets, hats, etc.
Later on that evening, we happened to meet Angel, who was out on his daily walks. We both had a fantastic conversation, and he showed me where the original alignment of Route 66 was, and we walked over to his pool hall. Thus was quite the experience, and I will always remember the kindness of his daughters and the history...
