    And that's Picaso's masterpiece "Guernica" in the background too. It's now in Madrid.

    See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guernica_%28painting%29#Post-exhibi... for more about the travels of Guernica during and after WWII. It was at MOMA for much of that time, going back to Spain in 1981.

    hdl.loc.gov/loc.music/wgpubs.051 is a scan of the Downbeat cover that includes the arrangers from this shot. hdl.loc.gov/loc.music/wgpubs.052 is the article by Got (Bill Gottlieb) that describes the visit and explains why the cover did not include Guernica.

    "From the ninth floor of the General Motors Building on West 58th Street, Abbott photographed Columbus Circle through the back of a Schenley Rye neon sign mounted on the seven-story New York Journal Building. "The Circle's statue of Columbus, built in 1892 to commemorate the quadricentennial of his ocean voyage, occupies the center of the photograph, but it is dwarfed by an even more popular landmark, the Coca-Cola sign standing atop the American Circle Building (1915). "The sign contained a half-mile of tubing, 3,000 incandescent lamps, and five miles of wire compressed into an area of 80 x 50 feet. " — more: Museum of the City of New York
