Magee and the origin of street parking meters
Oklahoma City editor Carl Magee helped spark meters after imagining a coin operated timer for cars with Gerald Hale. The Magee–Hale company released the device in the 1930s, first installed in Oklahoma City and later adopted nationwide. Rockwell later acquired Magee Hale in 1963.
