The Woman's Signal
The Woman's Signal was a weekly British feminist magazine published by Marshall & Son, London, from 4 January 1894 to 23 March 1899.[1] It was edited by Lady Henry Somerset, Annie Holdsworth and Florence Fenwick-Miller.[2] Although primarily a temperance paper, it dealt with several feminist issues including fair wages.[3] It began life as The Women's Penny Paper (27 October 1888 – 27 December 1890), edited by Helena B Temple (Henrietta Müller), later becoming The Woman’s Herald (3 January 1891 – 28 December 1893). In 1892, Mrs Frank Morrison became editor, followed by Christina Bremner, then by Lady Henry Somerset in 1893.[4] It was bought out by Lady Henry and renamed The Woman's Signal. Florence Fenwick-Miller bought the paper in 1895 and was the editor and sole proprietor until its demise in 1899.[5]
