Schweizerische Bauzeitung is an 1883 Zürich trade periodical of the Swiss engineers' and architects' association, published by H. Zürcher for building and engineering professionals. Its pages are dense advertisement columns: small black-and-white typeset ads for steel rope, rail, heating, boilers, drawing supplies and lifts. The Warenaufzug lift illustration and the radiator advertisement show period machinery drawn in crisp engraved line, useful to a designer seeking Victorian industrial ornament, decorative borders and dense typographic layouts.
