Scientific American, Vol. 92, No. 6 (1905)
Scientific American, volume 92, number 6, is a 1905 American weekly magazine of science, engineering and invention, aimed at a general technical readership. Its pages mix engraved machinery, electrical laboratory apparatus and trade advertisements for tools, motor cars and household goods. The pictures are black-and-white halftone and line engravings, with dense captions and small type; a designer might borrow their precise diagram look, sparse hatching, and the period typography of the advertisement columns.
