Table Talk (magazine)
Table Talk was a weekly magazine published from 26 June 1885[1] until 1939 in Melbourne, Australia.[2] It was established in 1885 by Maurice Brodzky (1847–1919), who obtained financial assistance[3] to start his own publication after resigning from The Herald.[2]
Table Talk was a social magazine for men and women[4] that included articles about politics, finance, literature, arts, and social notes.[4] Its gossip style attracted readers with articles about local notables and famous people from overseas commenting on, among other things, their fashion, relationships, and social engagements.[4] It was most popular during Melbourne's boom in the 1880s.[2]
In 1899, Table Talk's format changed to include different font sizes and photographs[5] and in 1926 it absorbed the illustrated magazine, Punch.[6] The last issue was dated 7 September 1939.[7]
