A United States Bureau of Foreign Commerce report published in Washington in 1890 by the Government Printing Office, surveying refrigerators and food preservation abroad for an official American audience. Its plates show rows of numbered cabinet refrigerators and kitchen ice chests in engraved line drawings, with ice compartments, shelved interiors, and cutaway doors, useful to a designer seeking Victorian-era appliance forms, cabinetry, and technical diagram conventions.
