Penny Bibliography

*Updated. With the recent digitisation of newspapers I have been able to refine the dates, often surprising myself when what I figured to be first publishing dates I found to be all wrong. This bibliography covers crime periodicals, comic journals and penny dreadfuls from 1621 to 1903, mostly based on advertisements and personal perusal of the works cited. Occasionally a periodical is mentioned, such as Barnard Gregory’s Satirist, that falls outside the penny/twopenny price. These are included because of the connections between Gregory and penny publishing, in particular his editorship of the Penny Satirist published by Benjamin Davy Cousins. Others, especially in the early days cost more than a penny but are included for various reasons. Pierce Egan's Tom and Jerry for instance was reprinted in penny broadsheets and influenced both high (Dickens) and low (penny dreadful authors.)

Needless to say this is a work in progress (unedited -- warts and all) and will be updated periodically.

“But if the Court is determined to confirm the conviction, then I here unhesitatingly declare, that I will set the law at defiance; - that law which the present Attorney-general himself declared was so odious - so iniquitous - so tyrannical , that it never could be carried into effect without holding “a dagger at the throat, and wresting the pen from the hand of every man who could write;” and yet the representative of the very man who used these words is now holding a dagger at my throat, but he shall strike it in before he wrests the pen from my hand, or prevents me from publishing a penny paper for the people every week, which I will do in defiance of this odious law, be the consequences what they may.” -- Henry Hetherington, Saturday, July 9, 1831. Quoted in The Poor Man’s Guardian. Established Contrary to “Law” To Try The Power of “Might” Against “Right.” ‘Knowledge Is Power’ ‘Liberty of the Press.’
