Amateur Newspapers from the American Antiquarian Society (AAS)
The amateur newspaper occupies an unusual place in the history of journalism. An amateur journal is a periodical created to afford pleasure to its readers as well as to its editor and its publisher. The rage to publish, rather than profit, is the motive that most often induces people to become amateur journalists; and, throughout the history of the genre, most but not all amateur journalists have been juveniles. This collection consists of more than 3,300 titles, from every state except Alaska and Hawaii, plus a number of papers from Canada. -
