Hit of the party…

It was the hit of my mother's 90th birthday party. The presentation (I ordered the box and certificate) was classy and the newspaper was of great quality. So happy I got it.

Lucky for Me

I got lucky because there was only one newspaper available from Leap Day for the year needed.

In good shape but brittle

Arrived in good shape but I was a bit surprised at how brittle the newspaper is. I am giving it as a gift and need to tell the recipient to handle with extreme care.

Great birthday Gift…

Great birthday gift option (as I was told)! Obviously, I didn’t get to thumb through it but the recipient was indeed impressed!
