Stobsiade : Zeitung des deutschen Kriegsgefangenen-Lagers Stobs in Schottland.
Hawick : [s.n.],
1916-[1919]
Newspaper printed by and for German prisoners of war held in Stobs camp, near Hawick. The paper was typeset in the camp and then printed by a local printer, Scott & Paterson of Hawick, which shipped copies to Germany.
An earlier edition of 14 issues was produced by civilian internees in 1915-16, before being replaced by this PoW edition.
The title is a pun on the popular 18th-century mock epic poem "Jobsiade" by the German physician and writer, Carl Arnold Kortum.
No. 23 was not published as it was cancelled by the British censors.
