Guest Posted 3 May , 2011 Share Posted 3 May , 2011 Hello - I have a newspaper clippling from Wednesday 29th Sep 1915. Sadly the title of the newspaper is missing and I am trying to trace it as I would like to find a copy of the original. There are some vital clues - it is edition number 2,046 was printed in London and cost one halfpenny. It is definitely registered as a newspaper. I imagine many newspapers were printed in London and cost 1/2 d. but only one will have this edition number on the 29th Sep 1915. If anyone has knowledge of which paper it could be, I would be grateful. Thanks MG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norrette Posted 1 July , 2011 Share Posted 1 July , 2011 Hi Martin, At a very rough guess - this would put issue 1 at about 1909. The Daily Sketch was started up that year. You can send an email to the British Library Newspaper section and someone can confirm for you. I'm interested now in what the article might have been (Sketch doesn't appear to be on-line) Norrette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
