Dodge, Mary Mapes, 1830-1905 · 1873 · [New York : Scribner & Co.] · 768 pictures

St. Nicholas was a children's magazine serial published in New York by Scribner & Co. in 1873, edited by Mary Mapes Dodge for young readers. Its pictures are loose pen-and-ink drawings and soft tonal halftones of women, children and a boy in everyday poses, with a monogrammed initial letter; a designer might take their light line work, expressive figure gestures and decorative lettering as models for editorial or vintage illustration.
