Arthur Hall was a nineteenth-century publisher and writer based in Paternoster Row, London.
In 1848 he took over Sharpe's London Magazine from T. B. Sharpe, who had founded it in 1845 as a weekly publication.
Hall made it a monthly, and moved it upmarket; the editor at the time was Frank Smedley.
[1] It appeared as Journal rather than Magazine from 1849 to 1852.
[2] At this time Hall went into business with George Virtue, forming Arthur Hall, Virtue & Co.[3] In the 1850s the firm published the "Hofland Library", a large collection of the juvenile works of Barbara Hofland.
