THIS DAY IN HISTORY

Finding websites, apps, and/or books to discover the events which occurred (or were reported) on a specific day and month in history is not a difficult task, and the trek back through time can be quite fascinating. However, one of the joys of the rare & early newspapers collectible is that you can actually own (or "gift" to others) issues which reported news on a certain day throughout publishing history as well.

Example: If you wanted to know what newspapers might be available for October 12th from the past few hundred years, you would enter 10 in the first field and 12 in the second field - and then press "Search". This would produce the following results: Ex., October 12th

Try it yourself. Go ahead and give your birthday (month and day) a try. Enjoy!
