The Inland architect and news record
The Inland Architect and News Record is a Chicago trade periodical of 1887 published by the Inland Publishing Company for architects and builders. Its pictures pair a formal studio portrait of a man in a dark suit with a high-angle photograph of the First National Bank Building in Chicago, shown by D. H. Burnham and Company, architects. A designer could take from them the tall gridded facade of a late nineteenth-century commercial tower seen from street level and a plain, sober portrait treatment in halftone.
