The Coach-makers' magazine
The Coach-makers' Magazine, published in New York by C.W. Saladee in 1855, was a periodical for carriage makers and their trade, with plates and advertising for coachbuilders. Its pictures show ornamental scrollwork designs, a ploughing or vegetable-cutting machine with a standing operator, a numbered carriage plate in plain outline, and trade advertisements with decorative type; a designer could draw on the flowing acanthus-like scrolls and the precise line drawings of vehicles.
