Highly highly recommended.
Very helpful and friendly service. Newspaper arrived quickly and well packaged with a quirky recycled newspaper gift bag and protective tissue paper also enclosed. Can't wait to give this as a Christmas gift. Highly highly recommended service. Will definitely be using them again.

Thanks for taking the time to review Papers Past Sandra.
This 1943 newspaper was located deep down in the archive however it was worth the effort to retrieve it as it will make the perfect Christmas gift.

Thanks for the kind words Eva. We might be a small business down here in Cornwall but I like to think that we "punch above our weight" and can get a top product delivered to most places in the UK the next day. It's interesting that you comment about the smell of the newspaper. People often ask me how to authenticate a newspaper and I always say that the first test is to smell it! If it smells old then it is likely to be an original and not a modern reprinted edition.
Gifted business with an amazing birthday gift
I am extremely grateful to Ian for his prompt efforts in getting our gift. I have never come across a business that is open 9am to 9pm 7 days a week but Ian went beyond as he replied after 9pm on a bank holiday weekend.
My lasting memory of my father-in-law is him reading his newspaper so this wa an ideal gift for his 80th birthday. The newspaper was high quality and fascinating to read. I cannot recommend this ore highly.

Thanks for the comments Julie.
This 1937 newspaper was a "Royal Edition" of The Times, from a very limited print run back then and originally for distribution to the Royal Households so a real piece of history. I can see that it has been much enjoyed by your father-in-law.
Highly recommended
Excellent and rapid advice from the company, and highly efficient retrieval and dispatch of specific historic newspaper ordered. This company seems to have a wider range of Times newspapers available than any of the other internet based companies, at the most competitive prices.

Hi Stuart
You have made this senior archivist very happy with your comments.
It is true that we have got good stocks of The Times (over 150 tons) but I prefer to sell them rather than hoard them hence the lower, much more competitive price. Customers get a good deal and I make a living working with fascinating old papers - everyone happy!

Thanks for the review Roy and I am glad that we met your needs. The £10 Discount Offer is proving so popular that I am extending it for another three months so do let me know if you have any other upcoming Birthdates or Anniversaries.

Excellent
Just received the Times newspaper from my dad's date of birth in 1923. Ordered on Thursday evening, delivered on Saturday. Really pleased with the condition of the newspaper and very professional packaging, I am certain that my dad will be pleased and amazed with it as a gift, highly recommended

Dads are so difficult to buy for but you chose a great gift. Spoiler Alert - the newspaper will lead to a great deal of family reminiscing .
Real people doing a really good job
I contacted Past Papers regarding a gift going overseas.

Believe it or not I had a 1957 Newspaper Volume in the car, as you do, and I was able to retrieve a really great edition, gift pack it and post it off to New Zealand straight away so a good job all round. Ian.
Really lovely gift.
I received my 80 year old paper today (Tuesday) having spoken to Ian to arrange and order on Sunday! Fabulous, friendly service and arrived in a lovely presentation box, I'm really pleased. All round lovely experience, I thoroughly recommend - Thank you.

Thanks for the glowing review.
I was right down in the 1947 Newspaper Archive when you contacted me so was able to work on your order straight away. Royal Mail did their bit by delivering overnight so all good all round. Do bear us in mind for any other upcoming Birthdates or Anniversaries. Ian.
Great service
Great service, speedy and well wrapped/ packaged. My Stepdad was thrilled with the paper, great quality. Would highly recommend.

Thanks for the review Jane. It was fascinating to retrieve this special date edition from deep down in the 1937 Newspaper Archive. Papers Past are a small business in rural Cornwall but we "punch above our weight" when it comes to despatching quality products quickly.
Brilliant Service, they go the extra mile!
I can't recommend Papers Past enough. They were very helpful when I made an enquiry and ensured that I got my order on time. My mum was thrilled with the newspapers and the birthday book; they made a wonderful 80th birthday present.

Thank you for the generous feedback and rating.
I, too, gave my Mum a date of birth newspaper on her 80th so I know exactly what you mean, she took great pleasure in reading out nearly all of the adverts to the family and talked about the good old days!
I can't recommend past papers enough!
