🦃 In 1957, the Aviation Products Division of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. built this 56-foot-tall Popeye balloon for the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade.

The sailor's mighty forearms measured seven feet in diameter, and his four-foot pipe could hold 80 pounds of to***co. More than spinach, it took 6,000 cubic feet of helium for the balloon to fully inflate.

Everyone remembers where they were on June 19, 2016. Most Clevelanders were glued to their TVs, watching history in motion as the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Golden State Warriors and brought the NBA championship home. 🏆

In the following days, an infamous parade flooded the streets of Downtown in celebration of the title, among the likes of franchise legends like Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and — of course — Lebron James.

The August 2016 issue of Cleveland Magazine kept the party going after the parade ended, telling the stories of those who witnessed and will forever cherish that Game 7.

May 1974: Superman wasn't always the city's only hero. In this retro issue, we featyred Captain Cleveland as Cleveland Magazine's cover star. The character, illustrated by James M. Elliott, was on a mission to save Cleveland's reputation, defeating those with anything bad to say about the city. His debut issue shares some good happenings around Cleveland, fashion tips and an examination of Gary Dee, an infamous local radio host in the 1970s.

John Chuldenko, who worked out of Chagrin Falls, is remembered as a beloved illustrator in the Cleveland scene. His daughter, Sarah Reynolds, shared with us one of his striking artworks for the cover of Cleveland Magazine in September 1979.

The issue profiles an infamous kickback case involving former City Council president George Forbes and local carnival operators. In that month's Editor's Note, Cleveland Magazine editor Lute Harmon Sr. remarked Chuldenko as "an extraordinarily talented artist" who was "the natural choice" to illustrate this cover.

📖 In December of 1988, Cleveland Magazine speculated what the city (and its skyline) would look like in the year 1995.

🏙️ Almost exactly 30 years since 1995, Cleveland welcomed another addition to our skyline – the brand new Sherwin-Williams headquarters. The skyscraper is the fourth tallest in CLE, and sixth tallest in all of Ohio.

🤔 What will the next 30 years hold for the city?
