Scientific American, Vol. 72, No. 15 (1895)
Scientific American, a weekly American periodical for engineers, inventors and general technical readers, published in New York in 1895. Its pages are dense with small advertisements for machinery, engines, bicycles, typewriters and patent medicines, alongside engraved diagrams of mechanical and industrial subjects. Designers can take from it the crowded layout of mixed-size ads and the crisp line engravings of machines and skeletal anatomy.
