Heralds of the morning, the meaning of the social and political problems of to-day and the significance of the great phenomena in nature ..
Heralds of the Morning is an 1899 prophetic treatise by Asa Oscar Tait, published by the Pacific Press Publishing Company in Oakland and San Francisco, California, for a readership interested in end-of-the-world interpretation. Its pictures are dramatic black-and-white scenes of disaster: a ship in heavy seas, a swirling cloud funnel over a dark landscape, a fallen figure, and a collapsing bridge and tower. A designer could draw on their turbulent storm energy and high-contrast engraved line for apocalyptic or catastrophe themes.
