Signs in motion
Only recently have scholars begun to study how signs structure and enable use of the humanized landscape. This paper proposes to advance this new subject further in taking up the category of signs that move. An historical review discloses wide application in public transit, private automobiles, commercial trucks, railroad rolling stock, state license plates, bumper stickers, marine transportation, clothing and tattoos.

America's Small Town/Big City Dialectic
The big city and small town have been stereotyped in the American experience as being at opposite ends of an imagined social gradient—the former more a place of cold impersonality in social relations and the latter more a place of warm personalized community. Assumptions about urban-based "mass society" largely blinded Americans through the twentieth century to the existence of, and importance of, locality-based community in big cities. Early in …

The Gas Station in America
Why were early gas stations built to resemble English cottages and Greek temples? How does Teddy Roosevelt's busting of the Standard Oil Trust in 1911 relate to the lack of Exxon and Chevron stations in the Mid-west today? What corporate decisions and economic pressures lay behind the Bauhaus-inspired stations of the 1930s? What have gas stations symbolized in the American experience? Geographer John Jakle and historian Keith Sculle have teamed u…

Twentieth Century Revival Architecture and The Gentry
This case study focuses on the 20th century revival houses of a Midwestern University city, Urbana, Illinois. English Revival houses are most closely associated with faculty families viewed as constituting a “gentry class” housed in a traditional “faculty row.” Other people (businessmen, managers, operatives and self-employed professionals) have occupied the Colonial Revival and Dutch Colonial houses and Cape Cod cottages. Initially, the Early Am…

The Changing Residential Structure of the Dutch Population in Kalamazoo, Michigan
The concept of acculturation, developed largely by anthropologists and sociologists, has not been sufficiently incorporated into geographical research on minority groups. One area in which the concept may be advantageously used is in the study of the origin and spatial evolution of ethnic neighborhoods in American cities. In pointing a way, this study analyses the changing residential patterns of the Dutch in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and relates thes…

Motel by the Roadside
The origins of the American motel are rooted in the traveler's use of the automobile. After 1910 the need for inexpensive overnight facilities convenient to the roadside led to the establishment of auto camps in the United States, especially in the West. In the East, the tourist home served a similar function. The highway traveler's rejection of the hotel (most hotels were located in congested downtowns and lacked adequate parking facilities) pro…

The Evolution of a Commercial Strip
This case study investigates the evolution of an arterial commercial strip along a previously residential street in a medium-sized American city. The hypothesis that gasoline stations and other automobile-oriented businesses first colonized the street on a block by block basis is supported. However, equally meaningful relationships between commercial land uses and shifts to multiple - family, absentee-owned housing are also examined as are the re…
Salt-Derived Place Names In The Ohio Valley
NINETEENTH CENTURIES settlers in the Ohio Valley found their salt supply a critical economic concern. Most pioneer farmers pursued a subsistence agriculture, but cattle-raising as a commercial endeavor was equally important. Through the sale of beef or pork, either salted or on the hoof, the western farmer obtained cash to purchase powder, iron goods, and other necessities and to pay his annual tax bill as well. Yet without adequate salt livestoc…

Roadside Restaurants and Place-Product-Packaging
With roots in the cafe, diner and tea room, various kinds of roadside restaurants evolved after 1920: roadside stands, highway coffee shops, drive-ins, outdoor walk-ups and indoor walk-ups. Together they came to represent a distinctive kind of place along the American roadside. Large corporations came to dominate highway-oriented restaurants after 1960 through “place-product-packaging”: the coordination of building design, decor, menu, service an…

Salt on the Ohio Valley Frontier, 1770–1820 1
Salt, available at natural springs, seasonally attracted great herds of bison which through years of repetitious movement carved an extensive system of buffalo traces: avenues used by Anglo-Americans in settling portions of the Ohio Valley. Frontier settlement concentrated in areas of salt availability as the vital dietary element proved necessary to sustain livestock and to prepare meats, thus providing the frontier farmer with an export commodi…
