Handmade Route 66 Collectibles Created by a Route 66 Enthusiast

Hi, I'm Doug Knight. I've been creating personalized laser-engraved collectibles from my workshop in Farmington, New Mexico. My passion for Route 66 runs deep—America's Mother Road isn't just a highway to me, it's a living piece of history that deserves to be celebrated and preserved.

I travel the Mother Road regularly, capturing photos and designing products that honor its legendary landmarks. From the Cadillac Ranch in Texas to the Wigwam Motel in Arizona, every magnet, keyring, and coaster you see is designed and created by me—not mass-produced overseas.

The Handmade Process

I use professional laser engraving and dye sublimation equipment to create durable, high-quality products that last for years. Each design starts with my own photography or custom graphics inspired by Route 66 landmarks. Every product tells a story, and I personally oversee every step from design to production to packaging.

I use premium materials—slate coasters, metal magnets, and ceramic mugs with fade-resistant graphics. If you're not satisfied, I'll make it right. That's my personal guarantee.

Trusted Along the Mother Road

My products are proudly sold in 25+ stores along Route 66, from Illinois to California. Shop owners trust my quality because their customers come back asking for more. When you buy from Doug Knight Designs, you're supporting a small American business and keeping Route 66 history alive.
