It is clear that Lloyd wanted to publish a newspaper from early on but stamp duty made it too expensive for his market. Not only was the publication of news subject to a 1d duty, but advertising also bore a tax of 1s 9d per ad and paper, a duty of 1½d per pound in weight. One of the ways to avoid the duty on news was to publish a fictitious or historical story that echoed current news so that readers would learn the outcome of the actual event from the dénouement of the story. The title Lloyd’s Penny Sunday Times & People’s Police Gazette suggests that this contained such “news”, along with some out- and-out fiction. Although the duty on news was the most invidious “tax on knowledge”, the heavy duty on paper had a malign effect on newspaper economics.
