The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is a Chicago architectural trade periodical from 1887, published by the Inland Publishing Company for architects and builders. Its pages show printed line drawings of finished buildings, rendered as sketched elevations with trees and street settings, including a tenement block and a cottage and a multi-storey building. A designer could draw on their strong vertical window grids, shaded roof planes and loose pen-and-ink street scenes for period architectural drawings.
