    Description

    Giant 4" long...
    A
    HISTORIC ROUTE 66 HOURLY MOTEL HOTEL KEY FOB RING TO ROOM #69.
    The highest number ever created was 65, but they actually had 77 rooms at one point.
    They had an odd numbering system for upstairs rooms.  (ex. 52, 52a, 53, and 53a) A stood for upstairs.
    So this is a gag gift, but a vintage gag gift.
    CORAL COURT WAS A ST. LOUIS HOT-SPOT.
    THIS PLACE WAS WELL KNOWN FOR IT'S HOURLY RATES.  ONE REASON THEY WERE SO POPULAR WAS THE GARAGES THAT WOULD HIDE THE CARS.
    IT WAS VERY DISCREET.
    THEY TRIED TO SAVE THE DEMOLISHING OF THIS HISTORIC LAND MARK TO NO AVAIL.
    EVERYONE AND ANYONE KNOWS OF THIS HOTEL IN THE ST. LOUIS AREA,
    AND ALSO KNOWN NATIONWIDE BY MANY.
    OWN A GREAT CONVERSATION PIECE.
    THIS IS A VINTAGE repop because room #69 never existed
    Extra large size almost 5"
    I only have the extra large size in the Royal Blue.
    Regular size is also listed.
