The Sunday Times was founded by W. H. Leighton Bailey. It was first published on 15 November 1885 by Charles Mark Curtiss, and ceased with no. 2389 on 1 June 1930.
The Sunday Times was controlled by the Evans family for more than 30 years, until 1916, when the Sunday Times Newspaper Company, as well as the company's premises, were sold to
Hugh D. McIntosh. In 1927, McIntosh sold his holdings in the Sunday Times Newspaper Company to Beckett's Newspapers, with J. H. C. Sleeman as Managing Director.
The Sunday Times ceased publication in 1930, with staff informed on 8 June. The Sunday Times Newspaper Company also published
The Referee from 1887, and later the
Arrow. ==Digitisation==
