1 6 y separately published work icon The Hobart Town Gazette 1825 Hobart : Ross and Howe , 1825-1880 Z1393412 1825 newspaper

The Hobart Town Gazette was established on 25 June 1825 by Ross and Howe, the newly appointed Government Printers. As the authorised publisher of government notices, Ross and Howe's Gazette took over the role of government newspaper from the Hobart Town Gazette, and Van Diemen's Land Advertiser published by Andrew Bent. The Gazette was published a day after Bent's paper and used the same volume and issue numbering. The two papers were published in this way for seven weeks, until 19 August 1825 when Bent changed the title of his Hobart Town Gazette, and Van Diemen's Land Advertiser to Colonial Times, and Tasmanian Advertiser. However, both papers continued numbering in tandem.

The Hobart Town Gazette changed its title in 1881 and continued as The Hobart Gazette (1881-1906) and from 1907 as the Tasmanian Government Gazette.
