The Civil engineer and architect's journal, scientific and railway gazette
A monthly London trade periodical of 1839, published by William Laxton for civil engineers, architects and railway men, mixing technical reports with patent notices and building news. Its wood-engraved figures are sectional and elevation diagrams of boilers, machine frames, presses and joinery details, keyed with italic letters and hatched shading, useful for line-work patterns and labelled mechanical forms.
