The Locomotive
A periodical issued from 1867 by the Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company in Hartford, Connecticut, reporting boiler explosions and inspection practice to engineers, plant owners, and insurers. Halftone photographs of wrecked boilers, riveted shells, and factory interiors sit beside line diagrams of piping, valves, and pressure forces with hand-lettered labels, hatched sections, and arrows.
