Original Newspaper

Gift Details

This is a unique and treasured gift suitable for a landmark event such as a special birthday or wedding anniversary. What was making the news on the actual day of the birth or the wedding? By giving an authentic newspaper from that day you will be giving the recipient a bit of their life history. Sourced from Historic Newspapers, the world’s largest private archive with a stock of around 7m genuine, original newspapers, virtually any date is available. Only a major national broadsheet title from the chosen date will be sent, usually The Times. The precious relic is bound unfolded into a hand-made, broadsheet, leatherette binder with the option of personalising the cover. A personalised certificate of authenticity with a name, date and occasion is provided with the newspaper. Please note that papers published on the days of key news events, such as Lunar landings and on a Sunday are rare and will be replaced by the following day’s issue (which reports the news from the day before).
