The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is a Chicago trade periodical for architects and builders, published by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887. Its pages mix photographic plates of civic buildings, such as Yale's Farnam Hall and a Nottingham insurance office, with advertisements for weather vanes, cement, and steel shutters. A designer could take from it the late nineteenth-century habit of framing a building photograph or engraving on a plain white page with a caption below.
