Melbourne Punch (from 1900, simply titled Punch) was an Australian illustrated magazine founded by Edgar Ray and Frederick Sinnett,[1] and published from August 1855 to December 1925. The magazine was modelled closely on Punch of London which was founded fifteen years earlier.[2][3] A similar magazine, Adelaide Punch, was published in South Australia from 1878 to 1884.
