Happy Birthday if you were born in February 1942

Posted on February 2, 2012 by Papers Past

Its been somewhat cold down in the 1942 newspaper archives this week. I should know because I have been down there every day retrieving original editions of The Times Newspaper for gifts for people who are going to be 70 years old this month. The February 1942 archive papers are fascinating and full of historical WW2 events as well as being the ideal gift for that person in your life who is difficult to buy for. I have just bought some extra thick socks and gloves so will be much warmer at work tomorrow and I look forward to you ordering a 70th Birthday Present for someone special. To order simply go to www.paperspast.co.uk or give me, Ian, a call on 01872 261220.

Extra, Extra Read All About It!

Posted on January 16, 2012 by Papers Past

“Extra, Extra Read All About It!”
“Papers Past, the Birthdate and Anniversary Newspaper Specialists, supports local charity”.
This is definitely a “good news” story.
Ian Willsher, Archive Sales Manager of Papers Past, has recently volunteered with local charity THAG (Truro Homeless Action Group). Every Sunday morning he helps cook and serve breakfasts for up to twenty homeless people. Ian said “This is a real, hands on opportunity to help in the local community and I’m proud to be associated with the group. Its an early start on cold and frosty winters mornings but things soon warm up when the cooking starts. We serve from 7.30am for an hour and a half so it does not impact on my work with Papers Past as our phone lines don’t open until 9am.”
To enquire about newspapers for birthdays call Ian on (01872) 261220 but not too early on a Sunday as he will still be doing the washing up, or go to www.paperspast.co.uk .

1952 Newspapers for gifts

Posted on January 9, 2012 by Papers Past

1952 was the most requested year last week. We have been searching out archive newspapers from 60 years ago and sending them for birthday gifts and anniversary presents. Most days in January 1952 were available as original editions of The Times Newspaper but not the 27 Jan 1952 as it was an unavailable Sunday and not in the newspaper collection. However the customer then requested the following days paper as it reported all of the news and events of 27th. To order or enquire about 1952 papers simply telephone (01872) 261220 or go to www.paperspast.co.uk .

1951 Newspaper Search

Posted on December 9, 2011 by Papers Past

We have just taken an order for a Times newspaper for 15 December 1951. It was a very last minute gift idea and the package needs to be delivered tomorrow morning for a special 60th Birthday lunch. We will make an immediate archive search for this special date edition. The 1951 newspapers are grouped together in their volumes in sector B1 of the warehouse and we will select the very best condition newspaper. Once found it will go through to the packing department where it will be checked. If there are any creases or turned over corners the date of birth newspaper will be ironed on a warm setting and the creases removed. A Certificate of Authenticty will be issued as each old paper is the genuine item. The rest of the packaging inserts are two sheets of conservation grade, acid free wrapping paper and a Newspaper Gift Bag. To arrive at its destination tomorrow the Royal Mail Special Delivery service is going to be used. Unlike some other suppliers we do not surcharge for Saturday RMSD, prefering to absorb the extra charge and keep the pricing structure simple.
To order your date of birth or anniversary newspaper then go to www.paperspast.co.uk or to speak to a person with real product knowledge call Ian on 01872 261220.
