The Logan and Albert Bulletin was an English language newspaper published in Southport, Queensland, Australia from 1885 to 1928.
The newspaper was originally established in 1885 [1] under the masthead the Southern Queensland Bulletin, a four-page weekly produced on a hand run machine in a tin shed by printer-editor P.J. McNamara. [2] There were several changes of ownership before the paper was bought by James Shepherd in 1895 and changed the title to The Logan and Albert Bulletin. [3] Shepherd was joined by W.D. Mellor in the propriety and together they launched another paper, The Beaudesert Herald in 1904. [4] By 1905 The Logan and Albert Bulletin had expanded to eight pages and was considered an old-established paper with a large circulation containing bright readable matter. [5] The paper was sold to Edward Fass, who became Southport's second mayor, in 1905. [6] Ownership of the paper continued to change over the next 50 years and it was the multi-generational contribution of the Rootes family that provided stability to the publication. [7] On 21 December 1928, [8] under the editorship of Mr Michael James O'Donohue, the newspaper changed format to a tabloid and altered its masthead for a third time to The South Coast Bulletin . [9] A fourth name change occurred on 8 May 1963 when The South Coast Bulletin became the Gold Coast Bulletin . [10]
