History

The Albury Banner, according to the National Library's TROVE, was up and running by 7 July 1860, although reported elsewhere as 3 January 1896. First printed and published on 3 January 1896 by George Adams for the proprietors of the Albury Banner and Wodonga Express. [1] It was published from 1896 to 1939. [2] [3] The paper became known as "The Cocky's Bible" because Adams advocated the cause of free settlers. [4] [1] From 1939 to 1949 it was published as The Albury Banner, Wodonga Express and Riverina Stock Journal and as the Albury Banner from 1949 to 1950. [5] [6]
