Great people to work with. I had a few questions and Guy was attentive and very helpful. The newspaper came extremely well packaged to handle shipping, and I’m very pleased with how quickly it was shipped. Definitely buy the archival folder (white with plastic layer), it is great to keep the paper nice and you can still open it and read the pages. The quality is exactly what was pictured, and I can’t wait to give it to my husband for Christmas. He will be so impressed with the preservation!

Very pleased with this seller (Guy), I needed a specific date, one which had no major historical significance, and the seller was helpful and found what I was looking for, with a marked up but fair price, considering. To add to this, the way the seller packages their newspapers was again quite helpful. It had been rainy and snowy all day when it was delivered, and though the outer cardboard was wet, the newspaper was fine due to being sealed up in a bag! Great seller, highly recommended!
