The newspaper circulated in the suburbs of Auburn, Lidcombe, Berala, Regents Park, Flemington, Homebush and surrounding districts, reporting on social, community, sporting and local government activities, and provided local business and classified advertising.
The first issue of The Express was published in 1924, and by June 1933 the paper had a guaranteed circulation of 10,000.
The Express continued publication until the early 1950s.Availability
Only three issues of The Express are held at the State Library of New South Wales, stored in offsite storage.
