Birmingham Gazette
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.
==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''. 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.
Although decried by its rivals as "Mere register of sales or... broker's guide" due its high number of advertisements, Asa Briggs described the eighteenth century ''Gazette'' as "one of the most lucrative and important provincial papers, ranking with the ''Liverpool Mercury'' and the ''Edinburgh Courant''".
Historical copies of ''Aris's Birmingham Gazette'', dating back to 1741, are available to search and view in digitised form at The British Newspaper Archive. 〔(Digitised copies of ''Aris's Birmingham Gazette'' )〕
