The paper was printed in London, although the initial idea and planning took place in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Seymour lived in Tunbridge Wells until early 1885, and there is correspondence between George Bernard Shaw and Seymour discussing the first edition which shows that Seymour was still living in Tunbridge Wells when the first issue was being prepared.[citation needed]
