St. Nicholas was a monthly illustrated magazine for children, edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and published in New York by Scribner from 1873. The pictures here are pen-and-ink illustrations of riders, children at play, a courtly exchange, and armoured legs, drawn in loose line work that a designer could borrow for editorial spot art or period-costume reference.
