“I was looking for something as an appropriate gift for my wife on the occasion of our ruby wedding anniversary. I had in mind a newspaper printed on the day of our wedding and an internet search led me to the Historic Newspapers site. I found the site very easy to use and soon found there was one copy left of the Guardian Newspaper for the date of our wedding. The site also offers the option of a gift box and a personalised message which I selected. The newspaper arrived promptly in the post, two days later. My wife and I are both delighted with this unique memento of our special day 40years ago and have found it fascinating to read about the events that were happening on that day. I would highly recommend Historic Newspapers to anyone who is looking for an unusual gift or something distinctive to commemorate a special day. The quality of the product and the service provided were excellent. My wife and I greatly appreciate the contribution Historic Newspapers have made to our celebrations.”
“Fantastic 80th birthday present from brother and sister all way to NZ. So interesting and a wonderful surprise in lovely gift box and authentic letter. A keepsake for sure.”
“I ordered a birthday edition for a friend’s 80th birthday. The ordering process was seamless and user friendly. Tracking was provided and the book arrived within the stated time frame. We are very happy with the quality of the book.”
“We ordered the newspaper book as an 80th present & our friend loved it! It was beautifully presented & although our friend is a times reader, he loved the amount of information & graphics in the mirror. The book is a little larger than i imagined but it does say the dimensions & it does need to be a fair size to be seen properly. An excellent keepsake gift which we will buy again!”
“I order a newspaper for my son's 50th birthday and he was delighted with it. I was impressed with the quality of the product and also the speed in which it was delivered to me. I would happily recommend this service to others.”
“Unfortunately there was an error with my order (wrong date of newspapers throughout the book). I reported this straight away and the lady I spoke to was extremely apologetic and reordered me another book which arrived fairly quickly. This was an 80th birthday present for my dad and it could have been a disaster had I not ordered the book in plenty of time. This is the first time I have used Historic Newspapers and I would certainly do so again, however, I do think that quality control department needs to be more vigilant when processing orders to ensure that the newspaper date ordered matches both the front cover and inside of the books.”
“I wanted the Yorkshire Post for my husbands 80th birthday, (he is a Yorkshire man, now living in another county!) Just to see what was happening on the day he was born. The paper arrived on time and was just what I wanted.”
“I bought this as a gift and the recipient was very happy with the book. The company are first class and the book arrived on time. I will definitely be using this company again.”
“Very disappointing! I ordered a personalised Manchester United book for my son in law’s birthday-it was the perfect present. They sent a Manchester City one and couldn’t turn the correct order round in time for his birthday. I got a refund but still not very impressed”
“Bought the "Your Life in Pictures" hard cover book for an 80th birthday gift. Quick and simple purchase system. Actually pleasantly surprised at the quality of the product, better than I expected. Thank you.”
“Absolutely splendid. A 75th birthday present for my big brother. Reasonably priced and in a superb frame. He was delighted. I will certainly order from Historic Newspapers again. Thank you.”
