All news material available from Old British News is out of copyright (older than 70 years).

Important: In order to participate in services available from Old British News apart from an email account, you need a PDF reader and a PayPal secure payment account or a method to pay using PayPal. I recommend the free Adobe PDF reader available to download here (other readers are available). The link to PayPal is here.
I can only supply one copy of each article.
I try to ensure the overall picture quality of the articles is good, however on some rare occasions, due to age or the original condition of the newspaper, it is possible the images are of a slightly poorer quality. If the overall image is completely unreadable I will naturally deduct the cost of that image from the total cost.
If I identify any newspaper articles related to your enquiry I will inform you and let you know how many are available and the date range.
I will also advise you of the cost of the copies if you require them.
I accept payment using the secure PayPal system (my account email is: admin@oldbrishnews.com).
I supply copies electronically by email in PDF format.
On receipt of payment by PayPal I will process your request and send you the copies in PDFformat by email (using the address you supplied in your original enquiry). You should receive your copies within 72 hours
