[1] Le Petit Journal was a daily Parisian newspaper that appeared between 1863 and 1944. It was founded by Moïse Polydore Millaud. As early as 1884, it 'Le Petit Journal' included a weekly illustrated supplement that appeared in a somewhat old-fashioned 19th century format. The back and front covers were printed in bold and eye-catching color, usually with prints or etchings of news-worthy events of the more sensationalist kind or patriotic allegories. The price was amazingly cheap and the print-run ran into more than a million copies for every issue. The inside pages consisted of text and at times pages of photographs or large-sized war maps.
