Nicely detailed, postally unused 1961 Devolite Peerless real-photo postcard of the former Hodgenville Motel on U.S. 31 (the Dixie Highway) in Hodgenville, KY! Was AAA-rated and had free TV and air conditioning. Handwritten notation on the front that it cost $13.50 for three adults to spend the night. Historically interesting as the economy shifted over time: most recently offered rooms for rent which were largely occupied by Hispanic migrant workers who replaced local tobacco workers, and was locally referred to as “little Tijuana.” A desirable roadside America or LaRue County collectible in excellent condition!
