Journal of the Association of Engineering Societies
This is a journal from the Association of Engineering Societies, published in New York by its Board of Managers in 1881, aimed at engineers and technical readers. Its pictures are black-and-white halftone photographs of industrial plant: large cylindrical pipes or boilers in a machine hall, a furnace or stoker bay with workers, a close view of a rail car's riveted side, and a steel-framed building beside a street with utility poles. A designer might draw on their dense, utilitarian industrial textures and strong perspective lines.
