community newspaper.[2]

History

The paper was the follow on to the Boulder City Daily News.[3] The paper switched to a weekly format on February 11, 1949.[3] Oral history states that the paper was actually weekly from about 1940 onward.[citation needed] During the war, Robert E. Carter published as often as supplies were available, but he made sure that papers were printed at least once a week. This led to an erratic schedule as both paper and ink supplies, and gas for delivery, were restricted by war-time regulations. [4] The paper issued on August 14, 1945, with the Headline "Japs Accept" stated that the paper was "published every morning except Sunday and Monday. Only newspaper printed and published in Boulder city under government permit."

Awards

The paper was recognized at the third-best newspaper with a circulation under 10,000 in the United States in 2007.[1] Before it shut down in 2009, the paper's circulation was 4,623.
