About the Item

A fine & captivating etching of Municipal (Midway) Airport Chicago by artist Kent Hagerman. Artwork size: 7" x 10". Archivally matted to 12" x 16". Kent Hagerman, also known as William Kay Hagerman, was born in Ohio in 1893. He studied at the Cleveland School of Art and the Sorbonne in Paris while serving in France during World War I. He began his career producing newspaper and magazine illustrations. He and his brother Gale operated an engraving company in Denver. Since Hagerman seldom dated his work, it is difficult to tell when specific prints were made. However, his early works were signed "Will Kay Hagerman", and from the early 1940's onward, his signature was "Kent Hagerman." Kent Hagerman and his wife Carrie moved to Lakeland, Florida in 1933. Besides the many fine etchings, Hagerman made sculptures and bas-reliefs of local leaders. He died three years after his wife's death in 1978 at the age of 85. An exhibit of his work was shown at the 1985 Lakeland City Centennial celebration. Information pertaining to this exhibit is in RG 3600, Lakeland Centennial. Included in the Lakeland Public Library collection are drawings, listed alphabetically, and two framed etchings. Source: Askart, Lakeland Public Library-Special Collections

Kent Hagerman, (US Air Force Fairchild C-119, the 'Flying Boxcar')
By Kent Hagerman
Located in New York, NY
While this is probably a military airport, Kent Hagerman still shows it at its futuristic best. Hagerman was an amazing draftsman who managed to get fantastic detail into his work. This is really a portrait of a plane -- the Fairchild C-119. The words 'United States Air Force' on the side of the plane date it to 1947 or later, after the Air Force split from the Army. The design featured the 'twin boom' clearly showing in this etching. Thanks to this feature it was called the Flying Boxcar. About 1100 were built and used until 1955. It was also used by the Chinese Air...
