90th Birthday Newspaper Gifts

Celebrating a 90th birthday is something exquisite. So rare an occasion, this milestone is a moment as special as the person you’re buying for. But what to gift an individual whose probably received every present imaginable? Why not give the gift of nostalgia? There’s nothing like a gift to rekindle the most precious memories and we have the perfect 90th birthday gifts. Not many individuals can say they’ve lived for 90 years. We can only imagine their experiences and the events they’ve lived through. With a birthday newspaper from our 90th birthday gifts, the recipient can reminisce what happened on their date of birth or choose any significant date to trigger a particular memory. With national, regional and even discontinued titles, the gift is tailored from the offset.

Including popular newspaper titles such as The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Dallas Morning News and much more, you get to choose the headline of your birthday keepsake. The newspaper you select will be accompanied by a personalized certificate of authenticity guaranteeing the age of the paper itself, validated by one of our archivists.

Or, for the perfect personalized gifts for 90-year-olds, why not try our newspaper books? From historical periods like WWI and WWII to historical icons like David Bowie, you’ll find something to spark their interest. The books themselves are bound in leather or leatherette and feature the recipient’s name embossed on the cover.

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.
