Birmingham Gazette
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Birmingham Gazette, known for much of its existence as Aris's Birmingham Gazette, was a newspaper that was published and circulated in Birmingham, England from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries. Founded as a weekly publication in 1741, it moved to daily production in 1862, and was absorbed by the Birmingham Post in 1956.
[edit]History
The Gazette was founded as the Birmingham Gazette and General Correspondent by Thomas Aris, a stationer from London who had moved to Birmingham in May 1740 and started a bookselling and printing business in the High Street. The first edition was issued on 16 November 1741, just under ten years after the town's first known newspaper, the Birmingham Journal.[1] By 1743 it had absorbed its rival Warwick and Staffordshire Gazette - which had been founded in London in 1737 and moved to Birmingham in 1741 - and become the town's only newspaper.[2]
