Fulham & Hammersmith Chronicle - Centenary Edition

Centenary Edition

Over the years, the stories and the format have slowly changed. For the 100th anniversary, the Fulham Chronicle ran a special supplement on April 7, 1988, reminding readers of major news stories which had taken place since the launch of the newspaper.

Chronicle reporters have covered the major celebrations in Fulham on Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897, the "devastation and horror" on the streets of Fulham during the Second World War and the history of Fulham Football Club at Craven Cottage.

The centenary edition of the paper featured a message from the Queen, which read: "I was very pleased to receive your kind message of loyal greetings, send on the occasion of the paper's Centenary.

"I send you, the staff and readers of the Fulham Chronicle, my warm congratulations on this notable anniversary, together with my best wishes for the future."

Famous quotes containing the word edition:

    Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
