Robert Woodhead Trustpilot product review 2 star rating January 18 2018

Whilst the book looks good leather bound and embossing of recipients name is good , it contains newspaper cuttings that has sex chat lines also printed . Not what I expected for £74.00

    Thank you for your review.

    I am pleased that you are satisfied with the product but sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with the contents of your newspaper product. Unfortunately we do not have a digital archive to confirm articles, the information that is reproduced is scanned from the original newspaper of that day and cannot be altered in any way due to licensing.
    It is not unusual to have classified ads in a newspaper which is usually featured within the sports section and unfortunately we have no control as to what the content will be.

    Sorry for any disappointment caused.
