This large vintage framed print, titled Columbus Street Story and created in 1980 by illustrator Jerry Points, depicts the historical evolution of a street in Columbus, Indiana. Designed as a visual timeline, the artwork compares the street’s architectural and cultural changes from the 1830s through the 1980s. The detailed drawings present shifting building styles, evolving forms of transportation, and the gradual development of the community over more than a century.
Executed in a fine-line illustrative style, the work recalls traditional methods seen in historical maps and early printed engravings. Points uses delicate linework and cross-hatching to render architecture, foliage, and figures with clarity and documentary realism. The intent is to inform and record rather than stylize, giving the piece the character of a historical reference illustration.
The print is set behind glass in a square gold-toned metal frame measuring 32.5 inches across and includes hardware for easy wall display. Its combination of vintage educational imagery, architectural interest, and large scale makes it an excellent decor piece for collectors of Americana, Indiana history, or mid-century illustrative prints.
