Genuine Original Newspapers

Our original newspapers are all genuine (not copies). Our collection has been developed over the last thirty years, buying newspaper runs from libraries, government institutions, and universities, both in the UK and overseas, many of which in the past used a keep a copy of a newspaper for every day. Indeed, one of the more recent collections we acquired was from a university in New Zealand. Our ‘Historic Newspaper’ collection has been painstakingly put together, so that we now have a substantial archive from which we can sell newspapers as a present for a birthday or anniversary. Any gift newspaper from Historic Newspapers comes with a Certificate of Authenticity which guarantees that the newspaper is genuinely authentic.

Newspaper Gift Presentations

We have a wide variety of gift presentations to suit all needs, to make a very special newspaper present.

We start with our gift boxes (from £29.99) which have the words ‘A Day to Remember’ embossed on the covers. We also have a luxury padded leatherette Presentation Folder, which is large enough to ensure that even broadsheets only need to be folded in half.

A gift newspaper can also be placed in a made-to-measure, hand-finished picture frame so that the recipient can show off their newspaper gift to friends and family. It can also be bound in a Full Size (approx. broadsheet size) Book, where your gift newspaper is bound in between two hardback covers to make it easy turn the pages, as well to help give it full protection and preserve it in the years to come.

Personalisation of Old Gift Newspapers

Our newspaper gifts are a highly personalised present that will show the thought that you have put into your presents. You will select a newspaper from the recipient’s special date, as well as the newspaper title. In addition, you can personalise the Certificate of Authenticity by adding the recipient’s name and special date being celebrated. In addition you can add a personal message to the certificate. This level of personalisation makes our gift newspapers even more special. Your newspaper present will be one of the few that will be etched in the memory of the recipient.
