Description
Looking for the newspaper from the day you were born? Our Birthday Edition is a hand-bound reproduction of the full paper from that morning — a personalised Irish birthday book with their name on the cover, made for milestone birthdays from the 40th through to the 100th.
Choose a national title such as the Irish Independent, The Irish Times, the Irish Press or the Cork Examiner, or go local with a regional paper from the place they grew up. Every book is €149.99, with free embossing on the cover and the option of a birthday message inside.
It’s the birthday newspaper gift that turns a date of birth into something the whole party can pass around: the headlines, the sport, the advertisements and the prices of the day they arrived.
Chose from our range of national titles including the Irish Independent, Irish (Cork) Examiner, The Irish Times or even the Irish Press.
Or if you prefer why not go local and select the local paper from where they were born with fantastic regional titles available like the Anglo-Celt, Connacht Tribune, Kerryman, Limerick Leader, Meath Chronicle, Munster Express, Nenagh Guardian, Southern Star, Ulster Herald or Western People to name but a few.
Enjoy pictures and advertisements that offer unique insights into Irish society at the time and are sure to drum up old memories of great past times and events.
The Newspaper Book for Milestone Birthdays will be a hit at any party and makes a stand-out gift to wow your loved ones.

Delivery
Please allow 3-5 working days for delivery.
Please note on some occasions such as bank holidays or festivals like Christmas Day there may have been no edition published on your specific date. In this case we will use the edition from the following date which will still cover the previous days news. Additionally we will still emboss the requested date on the cover of the Newspaper Book. Where the date falls on a Sunday we will reproduce the Sunday Independent.
Additionally for regional / local titles the paper was generally published once a week, in these scenarios and where the date requested does not fall on the date the paper was published we will take the closest date after the date requested which covers the previous weeks news. The requested date will still be the one embossed on the cover.
*Major News & Sport Events from That Decade are taken from national newspaper titles in all instances and not from regional titles.
Please note all papers are printed to approx. half the original size. As a result, the font size is comparable to a font size 8 in a modern document. There may be some fading in parts due to the varied storage methods used to archive this content.
