In 1933 it celebrated its first use of photographs in 1897 in a West Australian article.[4]
The Western Mail featured early work from many prominent West Australian authors and artists, including Mary Durack, Elizabeth Durack, May Gibbs, Stan Cross and Amy Heap.[5] The Western Mail Annual editions (1897–1955)[6] carried significant collections of Western Australia art, photography and writing from lesser-known artists such as Amelia Bunbury.[7]
The Western Mail was primarily created to provide farmers with up to date information. However, for many women in the most isolated areas of the state it represented their only social connections beyond their families. The women's and children's sections became popular and often attracted the most revenue for the paper.[8]
West Australian Newspapers management experimented with a variety of formats in the late 1940s and early 1950s, including the Weekend Mail for five years.
The newspaper was renamed to The Countryman on 27 January 1955.[9][10]
However, the name Western Mail was recycled for a last Christmas Annual in 1956.
Published 1980–1988
[edit]In 1980 the name was resurrected for a new weekly, published by Western Mail Limited. The push for a new paper was made by Robert Holmes à Court and Bell Group following his failed takeover attempt of The Times (UK).
The venture was wound up in 1988.[11]
