Here is a 1950s postcard for the "Cattlemen's Cafe, Truxton, Arizona" on Route 66. This is the only postcard we have ever seen from this small village founded in 1951 along Rt. 66. It was owned by John & Howard Grounds, open 24 hours, and its postcard said: "We Raise Our Own Beef". It is along the long, original Rt. 66 alignment between Seligman and Kingman, AZ between Peach Springs and Hackberry. It is almost a ghost town. The building is gone but the foundation is still visible with the outline of the old circular counter and the round steel bases of some of the bar stools still visible on the floor
