History and profile The ''Sketcher'' appeared once a month, starting April 1873. The proprietors were named as Edward Wilson, Lachlan Mackinnon and others.

Magazine
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus '' Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''. That a publication calls itself a ''journal'' does not make it a journal in the technical sense; ''The Wall Street Journal'' is actually a newspaper. Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic , ...

The Illustrated Adelaide Post
''The Illustrated Adelaide Post'' was a monthly publication, January 1867 – December 1874, published by W. A. Cawthorne, with issues appearing the week before departure of the English mail ship, clearly for new arrivals wanting to keep friends and relations "back home" informed. and printed by W. C. Sims (c. 1842–1923) of Gawler Place, Adelaide and his partner Joseph Elliott (c. 1833–1883), previously of the ''South Australian Registers general printing office, and later owner of ''The Southern Argus'', in 1867. Although described as "South Australia's first entirely local, fully illustrated, newspaper", it was characterised by the ''South Australian Register'', among other deficiencies, as having only the first and last pages dedicated to local news, the rest being identical to ''The Illustrated Melbourne Post''. The paper was not a success, and from 1875 was incorporated into a local edition of ''The Australasian Sketcher with Pen and Pencil'' Trove has digital copies fro ...

Biweekly Magazines Published In Australia
A weekly newspaper is a general-news or current affairs publication that is issued once or twice a week in a wide variety broadsheet, magazine, and digital formats. Similarly, a biweekly newspaper is published once every two weeks. Weekly newspapers tend to have smaller circulations than daily newspapers, and often cover smaller territories, such as one or more smaller towns, a rural county, or a few neighborhoods in a large city. Frequently, weeklies cover local news and engage in community journalism. Most weekly newspapers follow a similar format as daily newspapers (i.e., news, sports, obituaries, etc.). However, the primary focus is on news within a coverage area. The publication dates of weekly newspapers in North America vary, but often they come out in the middle of the week (Wednesday or Thursday). However, in the United Kingdom where they come out on Sundays, the weeklies which are called ''Sunday newspapers'', are often national in scope and have substantial circula ...
