Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about owning a piece of history.
Are the newspapers authentic originals or reproductions?
Every newspaper we sell is a genuine, original archive edition from the specific date requested. We do not sell modern reprints or photocopies.
How do you ensure the preservation of vintage newspapers?
Our documents are stored in a temperature-controlled, low-humidity environment. When shipped, they are placed in acid-free clear sleeves and reinforced packaging to prevent yellowing or damage.
What is the standard shipping time for personalized gift sets?
Standard shipping typically takes 3-5 business days. If you have opted for a personalized leatherette binder or premium framing, please allow an additional 48 hours for craftsmanship.
Can I return a newspaper from a specific historical date?
Due to the rare and one-of-a-kind nature of original archive issues, we generally do not accept returns unless the item was damaged during transit.
Will the newspaper show signs of age?
Yes, as these are authentic artifacts, some issues may show natural foxing, slight edge wear, or tanning. This characteristic 'patina' confirms the item's age and historical integrity.
Do I receive a Certificate of Authenticity with my order?
Yes, every original newspaper comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity guaranteeing its provenance and age.
