HOW TO APPLY FOR AN INTERNATIONAL DRIVING PERMIT:

Before departure, you can obtain one at a local office of one of the two automobile associations authorized by the U.S. Department of State: the American Automobile Association and the American Automobile Touring Alliance.

AAA (American Automobile Association) , 1000 AAA Drive, Heathrow, FL 32745-5063. The application is available on-line.
National Auto Club, 1151 E. Hillsdale Blvd., Foster City, CA 94404, tel: 800-622-2136 or 800-294-7000 ; fax: 650-294-7040
To apply for an international driving permit, you must be at least age 18, and you will need to present two passport-size photographs and your valid U.S. license. The cost of an international driving permit from these U.S. State Department-authorized organizations is under $20.00.

International Permit...it's only handy if your license is the old paper style without the photo, or not in English.

Probably that was the case Bob. I remember a friend who is a film cameraman who was going to shoot a movie in California wanted to drive cross country alone, just to see the country. He could not rent a car in those days, 70's, without an international licence. I should ask him about what you need now. He did it the opposite way (LA to NYC) about 10 years later too. That cost him his marriage but that is another story!!!
