Gift Newspapers
Original Newspapers have become a very popular gift for birthdays and anniversary. You can buy someone an original newspaper from their birth date, or from the day they were married. These newspapers are also bought for other meaningful dates, for instance, as a retirement or leaving gift – when the recipient can be presented with a newspaper from the date he / she joined the company.
As gifts, these original newspapers are usually treasured by the recipient. As they are published on the day of some significance to the recipient, like a birth date, they are an insightful connection with their past. It is fascinating to read about the world news or football results on the day they were born or married.
Genuine Original Newspapers
Our newspapers are genuine, not copies. Historic Newspapers guarantees the authenticity of the newspapers with a Certificate of Authenticity. Our collection of Historic Newspapers has been built up over the last four decades, buying newspaper runs from libraries, government institutions, universities, and in some cased from the newspaper groups themselves. We have hunted high and low around the world to build up our archive. We have bought newspapers from as far a field as the US, Australia – with our last significant purchase from abroad coming from a University in New Zealand.
By definition, our archive of original newspapers is finite. Once a newspaper title from a particular date is sold out, that is it. We will have no more, unless we can find another source of them. As time rolls on, finding another newspaper run becomes more and more difficult, making an original newspaper from a birth or wedding date ever rarer.
Personalised Newspaper Gift
An old newspaper from the recipient’s special date is already a personalised gift. This can be personalised still further by personalising the Certificate of Authenticity. You can add the recipient’s name, the occasion celebrated, and a personal greeting.
Gift Presentations
Our original newspapers are available to a wide choice of gift presentations. These range from our gift boxes (from £29.99) to the luxury padded leatherette folder. We can also frame your newspaper in a hand-made made-to-order picture frame, or bind the paper within the hard backed covers of our broadsheet sized Full Sized Book.
