St. Nicholas is an American children's magazine serial edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and published in New York by Scribner & Co. in 1873. Its pictures are small black-and-white scenes of colonial soldiers, a dim woodland figure, a family at a lamp-lit table, and boys in a canoe, showing period costume and simple staging a designer could draw on for vintage storytelling.
