The Sunday Graphic was an English tabloid newspaper published in Fleet Street.

The newspaper was founded in 1915 as the Sunday Herald and was later renamed the Illustrated Sunday Herald. In 1927 it changed its name to the Sunday Graphic, becoming the sister paper of the Daily Graphic. In August 1931 it was merged with the Sunday News (which had started life in 1842 as Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper). It ceased publication on 4 December 1960.

Trivials
The most infamous Sunday Graphic number was from 15 September 1935. Packages of human flesh, found in Moffat (Scotland), were surrounded by sheets of a local edition of this paper. This paper, which had been delivered to the home of Buck Ruxton, a GP living in Lancaster, Lancashire, became part of the evidence that helped the investigators and prosecutors to convict Ruxton for a double murder.
