September 1940 Times Newspaper - A Look Behind The Headlines

Whilst working in the 1940 Times Newspaper Archive and searching through the old 1940 newspaper volumes I found myself reading them from cover to cover.  I should of been getting these September 1940 Newspapers out for customers Birthday gifts but a few minutes reading these amazing original 1940 Newspapers wouldn't hurt. 

Back in September 1940 Briton was one year into WW2 and was being hit heavily by German Bombers.  Take a look a this photo from an actual September 1940 Times Newspaper and you can see the London skyline being lit up by searchlights.

These original 1940 Back Issue Newspapers give a true feeling of the time.  Reading the news and events of the day they make the ideal 70th Birthday Gift.
