Inventors

Hubert, Philip Gengembre, 1852-1925 · 1893 · New York, C. Scribner's Sons · 70 pictures

Biographical sketches of inventors, written by Philip Gengembre Hubert and published by Charles Scribner's Sons in New York in 1893 for general readers. Wood-engraved half-tone-era portraits dominate: bust heads in cravats and full beards, seated men in curtained interiors with books and checkered floors, plus a few thin-lined views of factories and waterfronts useful for hatched shading and period dress.
