A city of about 20,000 people today, Sapulpa started out as a railroad station in 1886, was chartered as a town in 1898, then had the good fortune of being just 6 miles away when the Glenn Pool oilfield was discovered, in 1905. Apart from the oil boom, Sapulpa is known for its glassware industry and for the manufacturing of brick and clay products. Frankoma Pottery was a longtime 66 attraction, established in Sapulpa in 1938 where it benefited from being located on the main highway that 66 served as for many years. The pottery factory closed down in 2011, another unfortunate break for those who delayed taking that 66 trip. George William Miller, the 65th Secretary of the Treasury, was born in Sapulpa, but you already knew that. These images from the outskirts of Sapulpa conjure up what I originally expected to find all along modern day Route 66 - narrow country lanes, crumbling concrete and brick roadways, and long abandoned antiques like the Rock Creek Bridge and Tee Pee Drive-In. Of course, my original expectations came from all the 66 literature and photography that tends to focuses on such vintage stuff. And rightly so that it does. But we all know better now. Log Book: 744 miles motored on old 66.

This 6 cup Teapot was made by the Frankoma Potteries of Oklahoma and is in the Wagon Wheel pattern which was first introduced in 1942. I believe this is their desert gold glaze over the rich, red Sapulpa clay. It has nice color and proportion and comes with its original lid. On the bottom it is incised with the Frankoma name and the design number 94T. It is in very good condition with minimal wear and no damage. It measures about 7 ¼” high, 8 ½” across, spout to handle and 3 3/5” wide, hub to hub. This a nice piece and will not disappoint any collection.

Route 66 was a mostly two lane highway that extended from Chicago to Los Angeles, through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before gradually giving up to the modern interstate. Most of the old pavement is still there, and can be followed with the right maps and directions. After initially driving the entire length, I return often for shorter runs, both for the incredible photography and to visit the many friends I have made along the way.
