Did any schools in Glasgow ever publish yearbooks?

Yes, but in the 1800s and early 1900s this would have been limited to fee-paying schools such as Glasgow Academy, and traditional Scottish "academys" up at least until the whole system became comprehensive in the 1970s. Even after then some of the state schools would have produced yearbooks.

See http://www.scotland.org.uk/modules.php? ... eA&show=10 for a listing of some, but note that it doesn't include schools such as St Aloysius.

Hi David.


You know it begs the question of 'are any of them online?' :)

Hi, not quite sure on Yearbooks
We called them magazines in ma day in the east end of the Second City.
I have several issues from the 50's and even up to 1968 from Whitehill.
David is once again spot on.
Lots of schools at the time did the same thing, even after they went comprehensive.
