The Scotsman Newspaper Archive

The Scotsman newspaper is based in Edinburgh. As Scotland’s national newspaper, it provides a Scottish perspective on a great number of topics, from news events to food and drink. While it began as a radical political paper in 1817, the newspaper started publishing daily in 1855 and continued to be a broadsheet newspaper up until 2004.

Our Scotsman archives hold a significant number of original newspapers dating back to the turn of the century, and show how the newspaper has changed as the years have gone on.

Front Page

I expected the name of recipient to be on the outside of the book. Happy with it other than that.

Very well made, lovely gift for my dad's 80th.

I was a bit worried how this would be, as its a lot of money, but I'm so pleased I decided to order it. The order process is very straight forward, I went for the hardback copy in a presentation box for my dad's 80th and had his name embossed on the front cover and a lovely personal message inside. It arrived really quickly about 3 or 4 days and in perfect condition. I am very happy with the quality of the book and found it fascinating flicking through some of the pages. I know my dad is going to love reading this. Highly recommend, you won't regret it. 5*
