HOLIDAY INN, Memphis TN
   
   

One of the originals, right here. This was a Memphis HI “Hotel Court” – seems odd to see the word “hotel” on the Great Sign, eh? Like it’s from a dimension slightly different than ours, one in which yellow is the predominant HI color.

The motel was actually behind this façade. It was located, I believe, at 4022 Thomas in Memphis - now an empty lot. There should be a historical marker. And where did the sign go? What junkyard did it grace?
