Bystander (magazine)

Bystander (magazine)

The Bystander was a British weekly tabloid magazine featuring reviews, topical sketches, and short stories. Published from Fleet Street, it was established in 1903 by William Comyns Beaumont, who later edited from 1928-1932. It was notably popular in World War I for its publication of the "Old Bill" cartoons by Bruce Bairnsfather. It also published some of the earliest stories of Daphne du Maurier, who was Beaumont's niece. It ran until 1940, when it merged with the "Tatler" (titled "Tatler & Bystander" until 1968).
