Our History In 1911 The Munson Mail was started by Grover Cleveland Duncan in Munson, AB. In April 1918 the printing plant was moved into Drumheller & amalgamated with the printing job plant of E.C. Payne. In September of 1952 three Drumheller businessmen (John Anderson, Sam Robb, & Osborne Sheddy Sr.) purchased the newspaper from The Clarke Brothers. John was the accountant, Sam was the Pressman, & Ossie was the young Salesman & Manager of the operations. Little by little, Ossie reinvested his share of the profits into purchasing more ownership in the company until he owned all shares in 1972.
