L'Echo français

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

L'Echo français ('French Echo') was a French biweekly newspaper published from Mexico City.[1][2] It was founded on January 26, 1902.[3] The newspaper was published between 1902 and 1925.[3][4] Anatole (alias Henri) Papillaud was the founder of the newspaper, albeit Papillaud left Mexico a few months after the launch of the publication.[3][5] It was one of two main French-language publications in Mexico at the time.[6] Its offices were located at Calle Uruguay 95.[1]

Ownership of the newspaper was later taken over by Max Athénosy. In 1925 the newspaper merged with Courrier du Mexique.[3]
