Galleryyuhself - Vintage Tobago.
Have you ever seen some of our vintage 19th century newspapers? This copy of The Tobago News is dated December 3rd, 1892!
These vintage Tobago newspapers were called, “The News” and were published every Saturday morning on Main Street, Scarborough by William C. Murrell. The price of a subscription was 9 shillings a year, once paid in advance. To subscribers in other colonies, the price was 12 shillings.
This newspaper was important to merchants who wished to advertise their goods, and also helped provide information about local events and news from around the world to citizens of Tobago. It operated as a gazette, or, an official journal of abstract current events. Newspapers like these are important to researchers as they help provide insight into key events, and help trace the chronology of the history of Trinidad and Tobago throughout major historical events.
