If you're going for the 1950's theme instead of mail, how about a diner? Put a table under the postcard, a cup of coffee, and a menu. Considering the nature of Rt. 66 any diner or drive-in along the route would offer a selection of postcards to advertise to travelers and would fit into the theme quite nicely.

I second this emotion. I can see the cheap, plasticky red & white checkerboard table cloth already.

Not sure about the ashtray
Perhaps some postage stamps or an envelope with a stamp on it turned upside down? might go with the pen.
Applaude your experimentation btw.

Smoking was in, in the fifties, so an ashtray is suitable to the theme ..
