How to get a patent; a complete compendium of useful information for inventors
A promotional handbook on patent procedure issued by the Washington patent agency J. Wedderburn & Co. in 1896 for inventors filing claims. The plates are coarse-screen halftone photographs of office interiors — rows of desks and clerks, drafting tables, model cases, filing shelves and corridors — usable for late-Victorian clerical work settings, period furniture silhouettes, and the grainy gray tonality of early halftone printing.
