The Lone Hand, the expensively produced hereditary offspring of the Bulletin, published between 1907 and 1921, is another interesting case in point of the passing of old formulas. Greenop's conclusion was that the Lone Hand died because of an inability to form and adapt editorial policy to changes in public taste, interest, trends and demand; a constant line of criticism in Greenop's book.
The Lone Hand's last editor was none other than Walter Jago who as discussed earlier also sang the swansong for Aussie.
Dulcie Deamer, shown on the right, was a New Zealand transplant to Australia who wrote for the Lone Hand and was also strongly connected with Aussie magazine through The Aussie Woman pages and in the New Zealand Section.
