The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record was a Chicago trade periodical published by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887, aimed at architects and builders. Its plates are rotated pen-and-line architectural drawings of residences, apartment blocks and a memorial building, showing elevations, floor plans and street views. A designer could draw on their crisp linear massing, repeated window grids and clean sepia-toned paper for period architectural illustration.
