1936 merger of the globe and the mail

I think you may be referring to the merger of the Globe Newspaper Company and the Mail Publishing Company in 1936.

The Globe Newspaper Company was a Boston-based newspaper company that was founded in 1872 and published the Boston Globe. The Mail Publishing Company, on the other hand, was a newspaper company that was founded in 1881 and published the Boston Mail.

In 1936, the two companies merged to form the Boston Globe-Mail Newspapers, Inc. The merger created a larger and more financially stable company that was better equipped to compete with other newspapers in the Boston market.

The merger also led to the creation of a new newspaper, the Boston Globe, which was launched in 1937. The Globe became one of the largest and most respected newspapers in the United States, known for its investigative reporting and editorial pages.

The merger was a significant event in the history of the Boston newspaper industry, and it marked the beginning of a new era for the Boston Globe.
