JOHN BULL MAGAZINE ADVERTISING CARD "KOHIMA"FOR THE BOOK "THE SIEGE"
History
John Bull is the name of a succession of different periodicals published in the UK during the period 1820–1960. In its original form, a Sunday newspaper published from 1820 to 1892, John Bull was a champion of traditional conservatism. From 1906 to 1920, under Meber of Parliament Horatio Bottomley, John Bull became a platform for his trenchant populis views. A 1946 relaunch by Odhams Press transformed John Bull magazine into something similar in style to the American magazine The Saturday Evening Post.
