Published by organisations such as the unions and school alumni associations, these commemorative magazines celebrated various milestones and events, including anniversaries and fundraising efforts. They provide an insight into the inner circles of these groups. These magazines also documented the cultural activities that the masses were involved in, as well as literary works written by union members and plays put up by alumni associations and the Singapore Arts Theatre. The bi- or tri-lingual nature of some publications also shows the kind of intercultural interaction that was taking place.
