Scientific American, Vol. 94, No. 2 (1906)
This is a 1906 issue of the weekly magazine Scientific American, published in New York for a general readership of engineers, inventors and technically curious readers. Its pages are mostly line-engraved and halftone photographs of early automobiles, showing whole cars in profile and front view, engines in cutaway, and chassis seen from below. A designer could take the crisp, labelled technical drawings and the clean captioned layouts as models for diagrammatic product illustration.
