The Inland architect and news record
This is a Chicago trade periodical, The Inland Architect and News Record, published in 1887 by the Inland Publishing Company for architects and builders. Its plates are photographic prints of finished American commercial and civic buildings, shown as frontal or corner views with architect credits and captions. A designer can take from them the period repertoire of rusticated stone bases, arched ground-floor openings, bracketed cornices and rounded street corners.
