Being able to look at a copy of the Observer from the date you were born or the date you got married is what makes our newspaper gifts memorable keepsakes. You can select the date of whatever special occasion you want and be able to look back at the headlines from that date throughout history.
Historic Newspapers offer excellent birthday newspapers and anniversary newspaper gifts, like our archive of headlines from the Observer newspaper. You can go beyond the customised date and personalise the gift to include the recipient’s name and a loving message.
Historic Newspapers holds an extensive collection of newspapers, with the UK’s largest Observer archive. Your newspaper will even come with a Certificate of Authenticity, which guarantees that your copy of the Observer is an authentic original newspaper.
To have a look at the range of newspaper editions that we have in our archive for your special day, choose the date in the drop down boxes.

October 17 2021A lovely Milestone birthday present
The Newspapers arrived very promptly in a much bigger package than expected and when opened was found to be most beautifully presented in a gold-lettered box. The birthday newspaper within was in very good condition, and the older one, though in very small print, was a very acceptable extra bonus. I will be the first to borrow them from the recipient, to read at my leisure!

We bought a newspaper for the date of our first daughter’s birth. We chose to add a personal message and it came in a lovely presentation box and was well packaged. We are really pleased. The delivery time was very good.

October 16 2021This was for a 90 year old mans birthday.
This was for a 90 year old mans birthday, thats a long time and for him to see what had happened on each of his birth years gave him some memories he never remembered but then he remembered the rest it bought back many memories so he was a very happy birthday boy. The book was well made and presentable with his name on the front when I gave it to him I felt just like Eamonn Andrews
