  • The Boston Post was a daily newspaper in New England for over a hundred years before it folded in 1956. The Post was founded in November 1831 by two prominent Boston businessmen, Charles G. Greene and William Beals. Edwin Grozier bought the paper in 1891. Within two decades, he had built it into easily the largest paper in Boston and New England. Grozier passed the publication to his son, Richard, upon his death in 1924. Under the younger Grozier, The Boston Post grew into one of the largest newspapers in the country. At its height in the 1930s, it had a circulation of well over a million readers. At the same time, Richard Grozier suffered an emotional breakdown from the death of his wife in childbirth from which he never recovered. Throughout the 1940s, facing increasing competition from the Hearst-run papers in Boston and New York and from radio and television news, the paper began a decline from which it never recovered. When it ceased publishing in October 1956, its daily circulation was 255,000, and Sunday circulation approximately 260,000. (en)

Under 1940-talet ökade dock konkurrensen, främst från andra tidningar i Boston och de tidningar som gavs ut av William Randolph Hearst i Boston och New York. Den ökade konkurrensen ledde till en tillbakagång som tidningen aldrig kunde hämta sig ifrån. I söndagsnumret bifogades ett separat veckomagasin. Det kallades först för "Sunday Magazine of The Boston Sunday Post" och sedan för "The Boston Sunday Post Sunday Magazine". (sv)
