Publisher's Synopsis

This limited edition of Edward Keating's photobook Main Street. The Lost Dream of Route 66 comes with a signed, numbered print. It is possible to choose one of the four following photographs: Tulsa, Los Angeles, Lebanon, Amarillo. All four photographs are available as a limited edition of 20 copies.

These four photographs, emblematic of hotels, the byways, the down-and-outs, the roadsides, is testimony to a country in decline and a requiem to this lost highway of dreams; it's former excitement and adventure, its concrete and tar. These photographs are dedicated to all those who got stuck and never made it across. The photographs are dedicated to those who never got their 'kicks', but got their asses kicked on Route 66.
