St. Nicholas [serial]

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 328 pictures

St. Nicholas is a serial children's magazine edited by Mary Mapes Dodge, published in New York by Scribner & Co. in 1873 for young readers. Its pictures are pen-and-ink wood engravings of boys in fishing, daily-life and period-costume scenes, with dense hatching and clear outlines that a designer could draw on for vintage line art and nineteenth-century youth imagery.
