Scientific American, Vol. 47, No. 17 (October 1882)
A weekly issue of Scientific American, published in New York in October 1882 for inventors, engineers, and manufacturers following new patents and industrial processes. The wood engravings show woodworking and planing machines, gear trains, clamps, and factory apparatus in three-quarter view, built from dense hatching and cross-hatched shadow that can be lifted as isolated mechanical silhouettes or texture.
