The beginning of the 20th century was a pivotal point in history for women’s rights.

Did you know that it was in this year that England signed a trading deal with China to make Opium the main trading commodity between them? An unimaginable reality nowadays.
King George V was the talk of the town this year, his coronation took place and he also managed to change the fate of India forever by announcing Delhi as it’s new capital.

insights from our archivist

These aren’t replicas. They’re the actual newspapers that sat on newsstands up to 125 years ago. The one you buy could be the last copy in existence.

Prices can vary for several reasons, like popularity of a specific day, whether the paper is local or national, the paper’s age, and the number of copies left.

Missing papers give us a window into history. If a paper isn’t available for the date you’re after, it could be because that newspaper was on strike during the period.

FLYING OFF THE NEWSSTANDS

Bestsellers leave public ‘clamouring for copies’, reports suggest.
