Scientific American, Vol. 83, No. 23 (1900)
Scientific American, volume 83, number 23, is a weekly American science and engineering magazine published in New York in 1900, aimed at general readers interested in invention and industry. Its pages mix engraved machine and vehicle illustrations with dense classified advertising for tools, steam and gasoline engines, and fire pumps. A designer might take from them the crowded, small-type layout of turn-of-the-century trade advertising and the plain black line engravings of machines.
