Perfect Paper Anniversary Gifts

Receiving a newspaper from the date of your wedding evokes a trip down memory lane – rekindling memories of what was happening in the world around you on that special day.

Our archive of anniversary newspapers is the largest in the UK, so we are likely to have a newspaper from almost every date over the last 100 years. To see what newspapers we have available for any particular special date, just select the relevant date on our newspaper selection tool.

We have old newspapers for every special anniversary celebration. Whether you are celebrating a Silver, Pearl, Ruby or Golden anniversary, our anniversary newspapers splendidly mark the occasion. Reminisce about the wedding day with your friends, leafing through the pages of your anniversary newspaper, printed on your wedding day.
Buying an original newspaper to celebrate a Paper Anniversary is an inspirational gift idea, steeped in relevance to the occasion. A couple can treasure their Paper anniversary newspaper gift for all their married years.

Our Anniversary Folder makes a perfect anniversary gift. The recipients will receive three original newspapers from their wedding date and from both partners’ birthdates. This is presented in a beautiful hand-finished dark blue leatherette presentation folder. The folder will protect the newspapers for years to come – a constant reminder of the wedding day.

Each of our original newspaper gifts comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, guaranteeing that the anniversary newspapers are genuinely original, and not copies. This can be personalised with the name of the couple, the wedding date and a personal message.

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.
