Packed with headlines from the date of the recipient’s birth and every birthday thereafter
A unique birthday book personalised with any name and message

Complete this gift with a luxury gift box
Features full front page newspaper reprint from a chosen date
A personalised birthday newspaper book is the perfect gift for those with a passion for history or journalism. This book provides a fascinating insight into how things were reported in the British press on your chosen date. Professionally bound in one-off leather and leatherette covers, this book features a front-page reprint from the day of the recipient’s birth and then every birthday thereafter. So, if the recipient was born on 10th October 1963, this will be the first page to appear. Following that, it will be 10th October 1964, then ‘65, and onwards to the present day.
The reprints themselves are printed on durable, quality paper. The recipient can use a blank page between each reprint to collate their own memories from that year, making this a truly meaningful present. The newspaper book is available in two finishes, whichever style you choose, you can gold emboss the front cover.
How to Personalise the Birthday Newspaper Book
Personalise this newspaper birthday book with any date and any name on its cover. Add a special presentation message in the book’s opening pages for added charm. Please note: if you choose to emboss the front cover with the recipient’s name, the date of birth will be printed as standard.

O/all Very good. Binding is excellent Layout is also excellent. Photocopying could have been a little sharper. I would recommend this product as a very good memento.

I ordered this as a present for my uncle in America for his 60th birthday. He absolutely loved it. I was very impressed with just how quickly it was made up & dispatched direct to the USA. We were sent via email full tracking details and updates from FedEx and the pod, once delivered. I couldn't have asked for a better service.

It was my grandfathers 90th birthday and I was looking for a unique and good quality gift that would be of interest to him. His wardrobe is full of new clothes bought for special occasions, and he has enough chocolates and spirits to open his own shop. Anyway, these type of things just weren't special enough. I found this company who I purchased the best ever gift from. The front page of the newspaper on the day he was born and every birthday thereafter. It was delivered quick and I'd had his name embossed on the front. The quality was exceptional and the pages inside where presented beautifully. Needless to say he was thrilled with it, and so was the rest of the family who took great delight at having a look at our history through the times.This has to be the best thing I have bought, I will definately buy from you again for yet another unique, quality gift. Thankyou so much, I am thrilled ! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I am very pleased with the gift. I haven't given it to my partner yet, as his birthday is 9th February, but I know he will be delighted. It is the second time I have received something from this site, and the first gift was also superb. Thankyou ever so much for coming up with such uniquely different gift ideas.

This was bought as a 90th Birthday present for my father, he was thrilled with it and had never seen anything quite like it. There was however a printing mistake made over the dates. This was very quickly resolved with a corrected product being received within 3 days. Excellent service I will buy from here again.

I was very happy with my recent purchase for my fathers 90 birthday of athe newspaper headlines for the year he was born. It was very well presented and layed out. The only fault i would have however is that because i was ordering it from Ireland we all thought that the newspaper would have been the irish mirror as this would have been more significiant to him. But that was not the case and it was the english news that he received.None the less he was pleased with it and spend considerable time going through it.
It arrived quickly and looks ideal as a present for my son. I cannot judge the quality of its contents

Lovely gift for a milestone birthday
Lovely gift for a milestone birthday, and beautifully packaged. The only improvement i can think of would be to be able to choose a newspaper from the area of your choice ie, the area you were born in. Nottingham has no relevance to my family. That said, still a lovely gift.

I am from Australia. There is no tracking number provided once the book has been dispatched. The book arrived 3 days after the estimated time frame however, it was still in time for the event where the book was to be given as a gift. When I called In The Book, I was advised that it can take upto 26 business days to arrive. The service was acceptable.

Book itself is great but is only suitable for white little boys which seems unfair. all well and good personalising the name but if your child is of a different race or gender to the illustration, the book is pointless. Feels like this needs to be made clearer on the website.
Customer services not very understanding and slow at responding.

I ordered a newspaper for my Dad’s 80th birthday - he was born on 7th January 1940.
When he opened the paper it was 8th January and also a Glasgow Herald which would be great for someone who lived in this area but not for someone who doesn’t.
I emailed the day after his birthday 8th January to enquire why this was and apart from an automatic reply to say I would be contacted, have heard nothing. Needless to say I am disappointed with the customer service I have received.
