The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record was a Chicago architectural periodical published by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887, addressed to architects, builders and building professionals. Its plates show architect-designed houses in photographic reproduction, such as a Wellington Avenue residence in Chicago and a George Anderson residence in Detroit, with brick facades, arched porches, and tree-lined street frontages a designer could study for massing and proportion. The trade advertisements on the other pages, for hydraulic presses, steam engines and floor coverings, show period typefaces and engraved machinery.
