Hemmings Motor News Blog

Hemmings Motor News has been around since 1954. We're proud of our heritage, but we're also more than the Hemmings full of classifieds that your father subscribed to. Aside from new editorial content every month in Hemmings, we have three monthly magazines: Hemmings Muscle Machines, Hemmings Classic Car and Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car.

While our editors traverse the country to find the best content for those magazines, we find other oddities related to the old-car hobby that we really had no place for - until now. With this blog, we're giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what we see and what we do during the course of putting out some of the finest automotive magazines you'll ever read.

Columbus, Ohio -1984

Posted June 11, 2012 9:00 AM by dstrohl

While Columbus, Ohio, has many a famous son (Buster Douglas! James Thurber! Jeg Coughlin! me!), it also lays claim to many more through Ohio State University, including artist Roy Lichtenstein, who studied there during the 1940s. Thus in 1984 the city commissioned Lichtenstein to create a 25-foot-tall version of his Brushstrokes in Flight for display at Port Columbus International Airport. The airport originally installed it outside the main entrance, but in 1998 the airport moved it inside, where it remains today. We found this photo of the original installation - amid a packed parking lot - on PhotOhio.org and thought it worthy of our parking lot scene series. What do you see here, carspotters.
