An original copy of Schweizer Familie from 28.12.1912 makes that moment tangible. It brings a specific day back to life, a day that might otherwise exist only in memory. And it is an authentic original, not a copy. This is confirmed by the HISTORIA certificate of authenticity included with every newspaper.

FAQ

Is the newspaper really an original, not a copy or reprint?

Yes, with one clearly labelled exception. At HISTORIA, you receive exclusively genuine original copies printed on the exact date you select. No scan, no reprint, no facsimile. The enclosed certificate of authenticity confirms this in writing. For a very small number of historically rare dates, such as around the end of the Second World War in 1945, we exceptionally offer copies because original issues are so scarce that we do not sell them. These editions are always explicitly labelled as copies in both the product title and the description.

Who is an old newspaper suitable for as a gift?

It is ideal for anyone celebrating a special occasion, such as a milestone birthday, wedding anniversary, retirement or graduation. A newspaper from someone's birth date or another meaningful day makes history personal and tangible. It is a memorable gift for parents, grandparents, friends or colleagues, and one that often comes as a real surprise.

Can I have the newspaper sent directly to the recipient?

Yes. During the ordering process, you can enter an alternative delivery address, including an address abroad. The newspaper will then be sent directly to the recipient, without needing to come to you first.

Does delivery take longer if I choose personalisation?

No. Personalised orders are processed directly in-house as soon as your order is received. Delivery times are not affected.

Can I order the newspaper without the folder?

Yes. The "original newspaper only" option includes the genuine old issue with certificate of authenticity and no additional packaging. The original speaks for itself.

Where does HISTORIA get so many old newspapers?

Behind our archive is a genuine collector's story. Our founder, Dr Joseph Nietfeld, is a historian and archivist who has built up a collection of more than 5 million international newspapers and magazines over almost 40 years. This has been made possible through close relationships with museums, archives, private collections and newspaper publishers.

Notes:

The newspapers shown in the product images are examples – let yourself be surprised by the original issue from your chosen date!
With personalization, your gift becomes a true one-of-a-kind piece! As it’s made especially for you, we unfortunately can’t accept returns; it’s therefore excluded from the right of withdrawal.
Some old newspapers may have slight storage or usage marks. That’s perfectly normal for originals – they give your newspaper its unique character and are clear proof of authenticity.
Our 5 million newspapers and magazines are stored under ideal conditions in our own archive. Should minor damage occur, such as a tear, our experienced team will handle it carefully and professionally.
The display frame is fitted with crocodile clips. Their fine teeth hold the newspaper securely in place. Over time, slight pressure marks may appear on the paper, but they’re only visible when the newspaper is removed from the frame.
Some editions contain only a few pages, for instance when paper was scarce, while in better times they were more extensive. You always receive the complete original exactly as it was printed on its publication day.
Please note that historical newspapers may contain period-specific views, language, or imagery that could be considered inappropriate or offensive today. They reflect the social and political context of their time and serve as historical sources. We ask you to handle these documents responsibly. We explicitly distance ourselves from all racist, antisemitic, and other discriminatory content, as well as from any glorification of violence or propaganda.
