The Tatler [1901]

An upmarket society magazine which is still going strong; it claims to be descended from the 18th-century Tatler edited by Steele, but that is highly dubious; featured two-page colour spreads by illustrator Alfred Bestall in the 1920s (in his reminiscences, he referred to the magazine as a "big shiny" -- equivalent to the contemporary American phrase "big slick"); it published fiction during its weekly period, e.g. "The Gentleman from America" by Michael Arlen (Christmas 1924); circulation of the relaunched version 72,000 (in 1993).

Absorbed The Bystander in 1940, to become Tatler & Bystander (still called that in 1962). In 1965, absorbed by London Life.
