The caption calls it the "finest" example of local googie, seems a bit subjective to me.  I would argue Shepherd motors on 7th is the finest and has not been as altered as much as Romania.  If they could restore Romania back to it's former glory it could be the finest.  Practically across the street from Romania is the former Sambos, now called Sam's on Franklin which is also a googie that has been practically destroyed by "upgrades."  You can't forget the Eugene Dennys either which is still a great-looking googie. There are still a few great googie signs out on 99, the restored one at Blachly-Lane Electric Co-op, and The Embers sign, which could do with restoration. I recently spotted a great new sign at the Timbers Motel downtown which is googie inspired.  I would also consider the Peace presbyterian Church off River Road a great googie and the Westmoreland footbridge over 18th.
