Journal of the Association of Engineering Societies
This is a journal of the Association of Engineering Societies, published in New York in 1881 by its board of managers for practising American engineers and their societies. The four pictures are technical: a rotated photograph of a railway cutting with a wooden trestle, a grid chart of compound-interest curves, a photograph of a timbered mine or tunnel with a pipe, and a plotted curve on a ruled page; a designer might take their plain line-graph and grid structure as a quiet source for diagram layouts.
