St. Nicholas was an American children's illustrated magazine serial edited by Mary Mapes Dodge, published in New York by Scribner in 1873 for young readers. Its pictures are loose pen-and-ink line drawings with hatching and open white ground, showing a boy in a turban beside cushions, a figure leaning against a large tree trunk, a boy running past a fallen hat, and a steamboat under sail, suggesting quick vignette layouts for narrative magazine spreads.
