The Penny Illustrated Paper was a cheap (1d.) illustrated weekly newspaper that ran from 1861 to 1913. Illustrated weekly newspapers had been pioneered by the Illustrated London News (published from 1842, costing fivepence): its imitators included the Pictorial Times (1843–8), and – after the 1855 repeal of the Stamp Act – the Illustrated Times. With the abolition of paper duty in 1861 it was possible to envisage an even cheaper mass-circulation illustrated weekly. The first issue, 12 October 1861, announced itself confidently under the masthead "PENNY ILLUSTRATED PAPER: With All the News of the Week": "A new era opens upon the people. In producing a paper for the million, let us plainly say, we want be esteemed the friend of the people ... A new era is opened to us by the Repeal of the Paper Duties" {{dead link|date=March 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} The paper was apparently initially the charge of Ebenezer Farrington, {{dead link|date=March 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} but the wife and sons of the recently deceased Herbert Ingram, proprietors of the Illustrated London News, also seem to have been behind the venture.[1] A well-known work by Harry B. Neilson, Mr Fox's Hunt Breakfast on Xmas Day, was created for issuing as a chromolithograph with the Christmas edition of the Penny Illustrated Paper in December 1897.[2] References1. ^"In 1861 Latey joined the staff of the Penny Illustrated Paper, then newly founded by William Ingram of the Illustrated London News" W.
