Artist's Description
When we think of turnstiles, we picture football matches, amusement parks and train stations. Although limiting entry to one person at a time is the primary objective of these gates today, this is a far cry from the gates' original purpose of allowing people to move while restricting livestock to their pens.
The design of the modern turnstile is attributed to a man called Clarence Saunders who put them into operation in the first self-service supermarket, amusingly named the Piggly Wiggly store. The selective entry system was installed to avoid overcrowding in the 4 aisled, 605 product packed store, and prevent mass hysteria amongst the bedazzled supermarket shoppers.
The idea of limiting entry and exit via the method of a turnstile soon caught on, and it wasn't long before they were being employed at venues which hosted large football matches. Interestingly enough, the first recorded use of turnstiles at a UK sporting venue was at Scotland's National Stadium, Hampden Park.
About Terri Waters
Hello, I am Terri Waters, born in London UK in the last century, now happily settled in Mylor Bridge, Cornwall. Every morning when I pull back my curtains there is a whole new day asking to be explored and I can't wait to grab my camera, get on my bicycle and see where the road takes me. As a designer I venture into digital art every now and again. A change is as good as a rest for my legs and my bike. Sometimes an idea pops into my head from nowhere and I can't wait to produce an image to convey it to the outside world. Would you like your own photographs made perfect or your own works of art given a new twist for more variety of prints from your originals?
