Original issue of a newspaper bearing the same date as someones birthday, anniversary or other memorable event. We do mean original, not reproduction. Each newspaper is a carefully preserved archive item packaged in an attractive prsentation box - a treasured gift, which as well as evoking the style and mood of their era, these increasingly rare editions represent unique collectable items. If special packaging is required, or the newspaper is being given as part of a formal presentation, such as a company retirement, you may instead prefer our deluxe version in a hand-finished chamois presentation folder. Drawing from the UK's largest newspaper archive, we can supply a complete major UK national Newspaper title from virtually any day over the last 100 years. While we cannot guarantee that your paper will be a specific name (eg The Times), we can ensure that you receive a British national daily broadsheet (ie similar large format) newspaper. The only exception to this is if you choose one of the small number of dates that mark an important historical moment in history (eg First Man on the Moon), as these versions have a uniquely-high collectable value. When you submit your date below, we make an automatic online check of availability, and make approriate suggestions. You may also be interested to read our overview of 20th Century British newspaper history page. If you are interested in rare collectable newspapers that mark an important historical event (eg the first man on the moon), then click here to browse our catalogue of over 600 rare newspaper titles.

ORDERING IS EASY! Please select your required newspaper date above, and click "Add to Cart". As explained below, if your date is a Sunday (check the day of the week), a £20.00 surcharge is added automatically. If you require urgent 48 hour delivery (UK mainland only, extra £9.95) instead of our usual 4-day UK service, please click the "48 hour delivery" box just above the Add to Cart button.

How do I know you can supply this date? When you click "Add to Cart", we perform an automatic online check of availability - you will only be able to proceed with your order if we are sure we can supply you.

Are they Real? These are the genuine complete and original papers! They are ‘not’ copies or the front page only. Each paper comes with a certificate of authenticity which can be personalised. A fantastic opportunity to re-live those times from a special day of your choice. These are precious and rare archives of a bygone age which can be shared and reserved for future generations.

Sunday Papers are rare and although we will only send a National Broadsheet, it is unlikely to be the Sunday Times. If your date is a Sunday (click here to check), a £20 surcharge applies. Times are available for most Mon – Sat dates. In rare cases of out of stock, we only replace with equivalent UK national broadsheets of that day.

Historical Events If any date you require falls on an historical event, we may not be able to supply, or a different price may apply. When you click "Add to Cart", we perform an automatic online check of availability in real time is made, so you know at the time of your order, that we can really supply the date in question.
