St. Nicholas [serial]

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 313 pictures

St. Nicholas was an American illustrated magazine for children, published in New York by Scribner in 1873 and edited by Mary Mapes Dodge. Its pictures are pen-and-ink and wash drawings of children at play, a fiddler with children in a meadow, and a woman with a child by a pond, with a few rotated scans. A designer could take loose, sketchy linework and the everyday outdoor scenes of nineteenth-century childhood as reference for editorial or vintage children's art.
