1959 Birthday Newspapers a great gift idea

Men are just so difficult to buy presents for, especially men who are going to be fifty as they seem to have everything. How about getting them an original Times Newspaper dated the very day they were born-see www.paperspast.co.uk for full details, its often possible to Order Today-Receive Tomorrow if you are short of time.
1959 was a fascinating year, a new Britain was emerging. The country was moving from the old world of empire to a new modern society, a brave new Socialist Utopia. A new economy was being forged as old ideas were being broken down. New towns were being built such as Harlow and Milton Keynes where rents were £2 per week and the country was in the midst of a consumer boom. Everyone wanted a television, a television had the power of taking people to a different world-it brought the sights and sounds of foreign lands in to the living room.
1959 saw Rock and Roll beginning to influence music with names like Billy Fury and Tommy Steele challanging the existing musical order. It saw the rise of the teenager.
A 1959 newspaper from Papers Past will report the news and events from that day and solve your gift buying problems for anyone who is going to be fifty.
