Summary

Description
English: Asahi Shimbun, First Issue of the newspaper, Front Page, January 25, 1879. This is the first issue of the Asahi Shimbun, which should be commemorated. The typeface of newspaper titles hasn't changed much. There were two types of newspapers published in the early Meiji era: Oshinbun, a large newspaper that discusses politics and the state, and Koshinbun, a small newspaper that publishes Ichii's events and novels with furigana. A small newspaper is a name given because the size of the paper is smaller than that of a large newspaper (about 1/3 of the current newspaper). The Asahi Shimbun also started as a small newspaper. The Asahi Shimbun gained a large number of readers immediately after its first publication, and by the 16th year of the Meiji era, four years after its first publication, it reached the highest daily circulation (about 20,000) in Japan.
日本語: 朝日新聞 創刊号。明治12年（1879）1月25日。記念すべき朝日新聞の創刊号です。新聞タイトルの字体は、今とほとんど変わっていません。明治初期に発行された新聞には、政治や国家のあり方を論じる大新聞おおしんぶんと、市井のでき事や絵入りの小説をふりがな交じりで掲載する小新聞こしんぶんの二種類がありました。小新聞とは、大新聞より紙面の寸法が小さい（現在の新聞の約1／3）ためにつけられた呼称です。朝日新聞も小新聞として出発しました。朝日新聞は、創刊してすぐに多くの読者を獲得し、創刊から4年後の明治16年には、早くも1日の発行部数（約2万部）日本一を達成します。
