The ''Derby Telegraph'', formerly the ''Derby Evening Telegraph'', is a daily tabloid newspaper distributed in the Derby area of England. ==History== In 1857, Richard Keene was publishing the ''Derby Telegraph'' every Saturday. His business was in Irongate. His family was to include Alfred John Keene who was a local painter who now has works in Derby Art Gallery.〔, accessed February 2011〕 Another paper was first published in 1879 by Eliza Pike. It was known at the time as the ''Derby Daily Telegraph'' and was a four-page broadsheet which cost a halfpenny. Historical copies of the ''Derby Daily Telegraph'', dating back to 1879, are available to search and view in digitised form at The British Newspaper Archive. 〔(Digitised copies of the ''Derby Daily Telegraph'' )〕 The first editor was WJ Piper who stayed in the post until his death in 1918. He was succeeded by William Gilman who in 1927, saw the paper sold three times in a series of months, eventually ending up in the hands of Northcliffe Newspaper Group, which was part of Daily Mail and General Trust plc. The same company also publishes the ''Telegraph Lite'' - a weekly advertising-funded free newspaper. The paper was originally housed at the Corn Market in the town centre, It was refurbished in 1918 after the First World War but it outgrew these premises in 1929 and moved to the Corn Exchange. It stayed there until 1981 when it moved to its current home on Meadow Road. In 2012, Local World acquired Northcliffe Media from Daily Mail and General Trust.〔(Daily Mail sells regional newspapers to Local World ) BBC News, 21 November 2012〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Derby Telegraph」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
