The Northam Advertiser was a newspaper published in Northam, Western Australia. It was published from 1895 to 1986. Between 1956 and 1959, it was titled the Northam Advertiser-News.[1][2][3] The editorial stance of the newspaper after its founding was studied by a Graylands Teachers College student in the 1960s,[4] and the newspaper was involved in commentating upon the turbulent first ten years of the twentieth century in Western Australian politics following the "post-Forrest era".[5]
