The British magazine Tit-Bits was launched in London by George Newnes and 'established a model of rewriting material from many sources, using cheap newsprint and selling in volume. It was quite open about this - the masthead proclaimed "From all the most interesting books, periodicals and contributors in the world".'
The British edition was published from 1881 to 1984. Its content included news items, sketches, anecdotes and jokes.
