Title:     Manchester Guardian

Description:     Abstract: The first edition appeared on Saturday 5th May, 1821 and cost 7d. The Manchester Guardian, like all newspapers based outside of London, could only afford to publish once a week. When the Manchester Guardian was first published in 1821, Manchester had six other weekly newspapers. With the arrival of the Manchester Guardian, the Manchester Observer decided to cease publication. A prospectus for the Guardian explained the aims and objectives of the proposed newspaper including the passage: "It will zealously enforce the principles of civil and religious Liberty, it will warmly advocate the cause of Reform; it will endeavour to assist in the diffusion of just principles of Political Economy."
