The National Police Gazette, commonly referred to as simply the Police Gazette, was an American magazine founded in 1845. It became the forerunner of the men's lifestyle magazine, the illustrated sports weekly, the girlie/pin up magazine, the celebrity gossip column, Guinness World Records-style competitions, and modern tabloid/sensational journalism.
Its popularity decreased during the Great Depression, and publication was suspended from Feb. 11, 1932 until Sept. 5, 1933.
It came under control of Harold H. Roswell in 1935, and it continued on as a monthly publication in Roswell's hands for many years. The Canadian newspaper publisher Joseph Azaria took it over in 1968, and it finally ceased print publication in 1977.
n its heyday it was immensely influential. In the first part of the 20th century, the United States became the centre for professional boxing. It was generally accepted that the "world champions" were those listed by the Police Gazette.
