St. Nicholas [serial]

Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 712 pictures

St. Nicholas was a monthly illustrated magazine for children published in New York by Scribner & Co. from 1873, edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and aimed at young readers in America. Its pictures are pen-and-ink line drawings of everyday scenes: a girl in a hat beside a pony, a figure climbing a rope, a woman crossing a room, and a street group with a dog on a lead, all showing crisp hatching and clear silhouettes a designer could borrow for period-style costume and figure work.
