Route 66 is a popular style of smaller, tourist-oriented Hopi Kachina dolls produced in the mid-20th century (especially 1960s–1970s). These were sold at Fred Harvey trading posts along the historic Route 66 highway, which passed near Hopi lands in Arizona. They were made by Hopi artisans (including the well-known Pooley family, like George Pooley and his sister Grace Pooley) for the growing tourist market. "Route 66" style Corn Maidens are typically more stylized, compact, and brightly painted—fashioned after those vintage pieces—while still honoring the traditional meaning.
