St. Nicholas [serial]

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 294 pictures

St. Nicholas is an American children's magazine serial edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and published in New York by Scribner in 1873, aimed at young readers. Its pictures are black-and-white pen and wood-engraved scenes of street crowds, a seated figure by a hearth, and a dog at a doorway, showing how period dress, crowd grouping and cross-hatched shading can be borrowed for vintage-style designs.
