Jefferson Davis Highway, Richmond

I spent some happy hours this afternoon in a cold rainstorm, photographing signs along Jefferson Davis Highway (Route 301), from southside Richmond to Petersburg, Virginia. Route 301, along pretty much any given stretch, is a fertile field for signs and great '50s architecture.

Here are some favorites from today's expedition.
