Tooting Free Press is generally considered to be 'the world's first annual newspaper.' By who, we're not quite sure. The content was an eclectic mix of current affairs (both home and abroad); also poetry, short stories, music reviews, cartoons, a 'Spot the War Criminal' competition and occasional gratuitous lies disguised as 'comment'. The only references to Tooting were to do with Mary Millington's life and work in this lively part of south London. TFP ran for three issues only 2012-14.
There are plans for an unprecedented fourth issue in the near future. The sale of these prints is intended to help fund any further issues.
