The Inland architect and news record
This is a plate-numbered architectural periodical, The Inland Architect and News Record, published in Chicago by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887 for architects and builders. Its pages present photographs of finished buildings, mostly residences, a school and commercial blocks in Milwaukee, St. Louis and Dubois-area Pennsylvania, shown as clean sepia halftones with captions beneath. A designer could take from them the period vocabulary of brick and shingle houses, bay windows, half-timbered gables and corner commercial façades with ornamented cornices.
