Scientific American, Vol. 85, No. 5 (August 1901)
An issue of the weekly Scientific American from August 1901, published in New York for a general readership of engineers, inventors, and technically minded subscribers. Wood-engraved and halftone figures show machinery in three-quarter view and cutaway section: battery cells, a bench motor with pulleys and gearing, a wave-powered bell buoy, and advertisers' cuts of lathes and engines, useful as line-art mechanical spot illustrations.
