Old colonial architectural details in and around Philadelphia. 50 plates of scaled and measured drawings
A measured-drawing plate book of colonial architectural details from Philadelphia, compiled by W. Davenport Goforth and William J. McAuley and published in New York by W. Helburn in 1890 for architects and builders. The plates are ink line drawings of cornices, mouldings, window heads, doorways and fanlights, with dimension lines and handwritten notes, so a designer can study historic profile shapes and proportions directly.
