When it first hit the newstands it known as TV-Radio Week and covered the time frame between 5th-11th December 1957 which provided details of radio programs and the new medium of TV.
First published in 1925 was a radio magazine titled Listener and in or about 1956 in a move to adapt to the ever evolving media changing landscape the title TV was added.
For its inaugural edition the cover featured Geoff Corke and Val Ruff both popular performers on GTV9.
In 1902 Thomas Shaw Fitchett founded a magazine which was published by Fitchett Bros under the subtitle A Women’s Home Journal for Australia.
The magazine was renamed as Everylady’s Journal in 1911 with yet another and final name change occurring in 1928 when the name reverted to New Idea.
Fitchett Bros would later change the name of their company to Southdown Press (it would be renamed Pacific Magazines and at the end of WW2 Keith Murdoch purchased the company which became known as Murdoch media.
In 1933 under the guidance of Frank Packer and Ted Theodore a weekly magazine publication began and it signalled that Australia was emerging from the pains of the Great Depression.
It was a magazine that was aimed directly at Australian women and so it was appropriately titled, The Australian Women’s Weekly.
Times have changed but somethings remain the same and that is the advertising promotions that go with magazines with the logo’s being emblazoned across the external walls of newsagencies.
In this instance the original signage is still visible on what was once a newsagency outlet in Forbes.
