A Holiday Inn motel stands beside a curved driveway and green lawn, its red brick and stone facade set with large windows. A tall roadside sign reads "Holiday Inn" and "The Nation's Innkeeper." The card places the motel on Stony Hollow Boulevard at U.S. Route 22 in Steubenville, Ohio, near Weirton, West Virginia. Holiday Inn began in 1952 as a chain of standardized, car-friendly motels for travelers on U.S. highways, and the "Nation's Innkeeper" slogan became part of its roadside identity.
