Description

Explore how the highway transformed into a corridor of commerce in Buyways: Billboards, Automobiles, and the American Landscape. This smart and visually compelling history traces the evolution of the outdoor advertising industry and its impact on American commercialism. From the 19th-century itinerant bill-stickers who posted circus posters to the modern era of blinking, 3-D digital displays, this book examines how advertisers spend billions to capture our fleeting attention. As we travel millions of miles on public roads, images of cars, food, and consumer goods blur past us, changing the very face of the American landscape. Published by Routledge as part of the Cultural Spaces series, this work provides a succinct look at how the billboard industry has shaped the visual environment we navigate every day. It is an essential read for those interested in business history and the cultural shifts driven by advertising and transportation.
