Scientific American, Vol. 92, No. 13 (1905)
Scientific American volume 92, number 13, published in New York in 1905 as a weekly magazine for general readers interested in science, invention and industry. Its pages are dense with classified advertisements, patent lists and small display ads for tools, engines, machinery and business services. The scans show a crowded layout of small type, ruled columns and tiny product engravings, which a designer might use as a reference for early twentieth-century commercial typography and advertising density.
