''The Bystander'' was a British weekly tabloid magazine that featured reviews, topical drawings, cartoons and short stories. Published from Fleet Street, it was established in 1903 by George Holt Thomas.〔Vincent Orange, ‘Thomas, George Holt (1870–1929)’, ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004〕 Its first editor, William Comyns Beaumont, later edited the magazine again from 1928-1932. It was notably popular during World War I for its publication of the "Old Bill" cartoons by Bruce Bairnsfather. The magazine also employed many notable artists including H. M. Bateman, W. Heath Robinson, Howard Elcock, Helen McKie, Will Owen, Edmund Blampied and L. R. Brightwell. It also published some of the earliest stories of Daphne du Maurier (Beaumont's niece), as well as short stories by Saki, including "Filboid Studge, the Story of a Mouse that Helped."〔''The Bystander'', 7 December 1910.〕 The magazine ran until 1940, when it merged with ''The Tatler'' (titled ''Tatler & Bystander'' until 1968).〔(Bystander ), Galactic Central Magazine Data File〕 ==References== *Mr. Comyns Beaumont, Obituaries, ''The Times'', January 2, 1956 *Mr. Comyns Beaumont, Mr. Richard Viner, ''The Times'', January 13, 1956 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bystander (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
