A visit to Seligman, if not all of Route 66, would not be complete without a stop here. Angel Delgadillo, the Seligman barber who just didn't want to see "his" town die and fought to keep Route 66 alive. He founded the Arizona Route 66 Association and initiated the highly publicized Route 66 Fun Run, where travel was rediscovered. It was about rediscovering slowness on the back road.

He gained international fame, gave hundreds of interviews, and is probably mentioned in every book that has been written about historic Route 66. His hair salon has now become a souvenir shop selling the usual kitsch, but it remains a place of pilgrimage nonetheless. One could say that Route 66 was revived here. It all started here.
