Angel Delgadillo continues to support all things for historic Route 66 and Seligman. Honored as a 2023 Arizona Historymaker, Angel is a young and active 98 year old enjoying flagging cars for the historic Route 66 Fun Run. He and wife Velma have a front row seat to relax.
Barbershops have changed but not Angel Delgadillo's Route 66 shop. They still use his father's 1926 chair. Mary Perona took pictures at Navajo Co. Historical Society in Holbrook so you can see the similarity to Angel's in Seligman. Photo shows Zona Lorig interviewing Angel for his oral history when he was honored as 2023 AZ Historymaker. •
