Rivista di astronomia e scienze affini, 1909, a. 3, n. 12 (December)
An Italian astronomy periodical issued in 1909 by the Società astronomica italiana and the Turin astronomical observatory, serving amateur and professional astronomers. Its pictures show a map of Mars drawn from Meudon observations, an observatory instrument with a telescope and clockwork mechanism, a telescopic view of Mars, and a portable precision clock in a wooden case, all in halftone engraving style; a designer could draw on the detailed scientific diagrams, the circular telescope-field framing, and the sober line-and-tone rendering of technical equipment.
