The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is a Chicago architectural periodical published by the Inland Publishing Company in 1887, aimed at architects and builders. Its plates pair measured elevations, plans and perspective views of public buildings with photographic interiors and street scenes, showing the building practice of its day. A designer could draw on its crisp line drawings of classical façades, dense ornamental interior joinery, and the tonal contrast of its halftone photographs.
