on the way...

In the years 1929-1930, two 15 year old schoolboys produced a magazine called
'Our Quarter'.

The frontispiece stated:
"This magazine appears occasionally,
when it thinks it will."

The boys were B.Ian Wherrett and Jack Hems.

They wrote much of the material and drew the illustrations.

The text includes:

  • stories
  • poems
  • reviews
  • editorials.
Dancing couple

There is:

  • politics
  • drama
  • sedition
  • slavery
  • justice
  • revolution
  • salvation
  • love
  • crime

and that's just issue 1.

Some of the material is reproduced here
and more will appear occasionally -
when it thinks it will.

The magazines can be downloaded free as
PDF files.
