The Premium Birthday Edition

Ever wonder what world events have helped shape your lifetime? Only the vast archival records of The New York Times can inspire such rich and personalized reflection. Intended for those born from 1921–1985, The Premium Birthday Edition turns history dilettantes into devotees by celebrating the headlines of their lives. Hardbound with every front page of the newspaper from the day of birth and every birthday thereafter, right through today, it’s a uniquely personal gift, lasting treasure and conversation starter.

As a friend or loved one flips through this anthology, it will take them back in time to the most important headlines, articles and photos from the selected day of the year.

Our reimagined custom birthday book is now better than ever, upgraded with premium-stock paper and a new expansive introduction that retraces the history of The Times. You’ll find rarely seen archival photos as well as an informative timeline showing major events that changed the world and defined the newspaper.
