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, written for architects, builders and the building trade. Its plates reproduce photographs and drawings of recent buildings, including a university library, mansions, a trade pavilion interior and a row of houses in Paris. A designer can take from them the period range of American and French institutional and domestic architecture, with heavy masonry, arched entrances, colonnaded porches and steep roofs with dormers and finials, plus a sculpture court with classical statuary and potted palms.
