Evening Press
The ''Evening Press'' was an Irish newspaper which was printed from 1954 until 1995. It was set up by Éamon de Valera's Irish Press group, and was originally edited by Douglas Gageby. Its principal competitor was the ''Evening Herald'', which had been operating in Dublin as the one of only two evening papers since the demise of the '' Evening Telegraph'' in 1924. The ''Evening Press'' was an instant success, and contributed to the financial losses and eventual closure of the '' Evening Mail'' in 1962. The ''Evening Press'' heavily outsold the ''Evening Herald'' for most of its life also, particularly outside Dublin. It peaked at sales of 175,000 copies a day. The poor performance of ''The Irish Press'', particularly after its unsuccessful relaunch in 1988, was a severe drain on the whole Irish Press Group, and probably damaged the ''Evening Press'' brand, although it continued to perform better in the evening newspaper market than its sister paper did in the morning market. ...
