Scientific American, Vol. 47, No. 16 (1882)
A weekly American periodical of 1882 devoted to science, invention and mechanical engineering, aimed at a general readership of inventors, engineers and tradesmen. Its pages show machinery drawn in fine black-line engraving, and the pictures here are clean, orderly views of engines, a steam hammer and an ore separator, useful for a designer seeking Victorian industrial structure, mechanical detail and diagrammatic clarity.
