Well crafted artist's book parody of Edward Ruscha's "Twentysix Gasoline Stations." "This book is dedicated to and inspired by Ed Ruscha and his original 'Twentysix Gasoline Stations,' first published in 1962." -- from book's introduction. "In late twentieth century postmodern America the number of gasoline stations across the nation has dwindled. With rising land values and new, tougher environmental restraints, many independent station owners found themselves unable to replace aging underground tanks that the EPA deemed unsafe. Subsequently, a favorite public place where flat tires were fixed and the weather discussed, is slowing vanishing from our landscape." -- from insert card.
