St. Nicholas [serial]

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 424 pictures

St. Nicholas was a monthly illustrated magazine for children, edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and published in New York by Scribner in 1873. The pictures are loose pen-and-ink drawings in a sketchy hatched line, one showing marching soldiers in a misty field, another a tangle of leaves, a third a classical scene with a figure in a tunic and lyre, and a fourth a street with carriages and a figure in a long dress; a designer might take their loose, quick hatching as a model for informal editorial sketches.
