The Architect & engineer of California and the Pacific Coast
A San Francisco trade monthly begun in 1905 for West Coast architects, engineers and building contractors, mixing project reports with advertising from local suppliers. Halftone photographs show bridge demolition and steel girder erection, timber trestles over a river gorge, and street-level views of early steel-frame office towers, alongside letterpress advertisement pages with ornate rules, fleurons and display typefaces useful for period layout and lettering reference.
