Historic Newspapers Premium Gift Box

Original Newspaper Gifts in 5 Words:

History, Nostalgia, Fun, Certified, Boxed

Are you looking for an original gift that won’t break the bank and celebrate a special birthday? An original newspaper is just the ticket.

Original History

An original newspaper is a time-capsule containing the day someone was born. The world around them is captured in vivid reporting and of the moment press photography. I recently gave a copy to a friend who was thrilled to learn about the day she was born in 1968.

Certified and Personalised

I was once shown a fake newspaper from the 1970s by the chief researcher at Historic Newspapers. I couldn’t spot the difference till he pointed out some subtle differences including the way the paper was cut and the tiny perforations that a real newspaper printing press makes. Historic Newspapers supplies a Certificate of Authenticity with each newspaper. You can personalise the certificate with a name and a message.

    I don’t know if you can help me but I am trying to purchase a copy of the Washington Post for 19th January 1951. I appreciate that you specialise in past UK newspapers but I was wondering if you knew of any American companies that offer the same service.

    I would like to buy this as a gift for an American friend and only have about 6 weeks to get hold of a copy. I have been searching on the internet for several weeks but with no luck.

    Thank you for your helps.

    With kind regards
