Bibliographic Details Publisher: Anderson & Sons Pub Co Published date: 1991 Size: 9.25 x 11 inches Weight: 1.4 pounds Similar books Vacant Eden by Jim Heimann Motels by Main Street to Miracle Mile by Chester H. Liebs First published in 1985, Chester Liebs' Main Street to Miracle Mile established the twentieth-century roadside landscape as a subject for serious study. Liebs traces the transformation of commercial development as it has moved from centralized main streets, out along the street car lines, to form the "miracle miles" and shopping malls of today. He also explores the evolution of roadside buildings, from supermarkets and motels to automobile showrooms and drive-in theaters. Both an historical survey and invaluable guide for reading highway landscapes, this classic work--which has inspired numerous studies, museum exhibits, and preservation efforts--is now back in print with new commentary by the author. The American Gas Station by Michael Karl Witzel Once upon a time, gasoline was poured into your Model T by hand. By the 1950s, service stations were manned by teams of attendants that rushed forth at the sound of a bell to wipe your windows and check your oil. In the 1980s, self-service had become the rule at all but a few stations. Now that slice of Americana is available in this paperbound edition of the MBI Publishing Company's bestseller. Nearly 200 photographs showcase period advertisements, original trademarks, memorabilia, and much more. Old-time owners and attendants discuss these changes and how they have affected our lives. Fill It Up by Gail Gibbons ‘What really goes on inside [a service station]? An array of typical activities carried on by men and women on the day shift at John and Peggy’s Service Station.’ —BL. ‘Accurate and appealing, it will be a sure hit with [Gail] Gibbons’s fans.’ —SLJ.
