From 1991: Bill Geist travels Route 66, the "Main Street of America"
It's a storied American highway that traversed 2,400 miles beginning in Chicago, and not ending until it had to, at the Pacific Ocean. Bill Geist gets his kicks on a stretch of the historic Route 66 in New Mexico, riding along with Tom Snyder, author of "The Route 66 Traveler's Guide and Roadside Companion," and talks with Tom LaMance, proprietor of Swap Meet 66 in Prewitt, N.M., in a story originally broadcast on "Sunday Morning" July 28, 1991.
