    News of the World eh..........1843 :D...........Sunday October 1st!


    Thats a coincedence, I have one dated from that exact same time too...



    I'd guess its worth a couple of euro's, at most!


    Why? as I said, I have one too, and so do many households I'd imagine, stuffed away somewhere. The News of the World did a special ehhh....150 year anniversary thingie and replicated one of there first newspapers.

    Tis a fake boy :p

    I doubt that,......... a paper just hanging around 164 years ?

    you'd need to find a paper like that in the lining of a victorian chest,...or the back of a 19th century mirror .
