The Penny Mechanic, and the Chemist: A Magazine of the Arts and Sciences [Vol. III, 1838]

The third bound annual volume of The Penny Mechanic, and the Chemist: A Magazine of the Arts and Sciences, covering 1838, with the publisher now recorded solely as G. Berger of Holywell-Street, Strand — indicating a change in publishing arrangements from Vols. I and II. The volume includes an engraved portrait frontispiece of the engineer John Rennie F.R.S. (1761–1821). Together with Vols. I and II also in the collection, this forms a three-volume run of a scarce early Victorian popular science periodical.
