- Although not South Australia’s first newspaper, the Advertiser is perhaps the State’s - if not the country’s - most recognisable newspaper with bold advertising covering its front page until 1942
- Although a broadsheet newspaper, The Advertiser broke conservative traditions in the first half of the century by using a bold format on its front page rather than the tight column style synonymous with the period.
- The Advertiser’s individuality was also reflected in its reporting of the news with a more liberal and slightly sensational sentiment, giving the Advertiser a strong identity that distinguished it from other Australian dailies
- Perhaps in a bid to hold on to this individuality, it retained its broadsheet format as late as 1997, but changed to a tabloid not long after introducing colour to its pages.
