The 1970s Butterfield Stage Company Steakhouse occupies the 1927 Motaurant Coffee Shop site. Notice the stagecoach on top.

The Chief Motel was located across the street from the Butterfield Stage Company Steakhouse but it burned down in 1975. Left standing is a large wall with a Route 66 map painted on it.

Note: The image on this postcard appears to be from the early 1960s based on the newest cars shown. Apparently, according to the "Indian Arts" mentioned, they had a gift shop as well as the food services. It wasn't unusual for a cafe to have some kind of gift shop oor area in the heyday of Route 66, mentioning it on a postcard was less common.
