Date of Birth Newspaper Gift

We recently purchased this gift for our mum who turned 95 this year. She loves to read the daily paper so we thought this would be the perfect gift for her. She is delighted with it and we spend a good deal of time looking through it and chatting about the past and growing up in Ireland.

It is beautifully bound and presented. In addition to the paper of her birth date, major events in the decade she was born are also included. It is hard to believe that you can get an entire newspaper print from 1925 - well done to those who had the foresight to save all this history. The quality of the print is good and some of it is quite small which is understandable due to the age of this paper. But the help of the varifocals and a magnifying glass, we are not missing out on any details!

Thanks to Philip and Ralph for excellent customer service.
