Souvenir Newspaper

My parents kept a copy of the Daily Mirror from July 21st 1969 (may still have it) and I remember reading it from cover to cover a few times during my early teens. I used to wonder if something equally momentus would happen in the future so that I could do the same. What was on tv at the time and the sports page were as fascinating to me as the actual moon landings.

I suppose the internet may make this redundant but I bought and will keep a copy of the Guardian from last Thursday.

I also have a copy of the Racing Post from this past March 14th.

Euron, I'm old and maybe a bit thick but, can you enlighten me on the significance of last Thursday's Guardian and remind me about 14/3/08 (I assume that has something to do with Chelters?!)

Obama - Kauto Star vs Denman. I probably should have bought last Wednesday`s but I figured Thurs would have more complete coverage.

I was in America during 9/11 and have copies of the NY Times, NY Daily News and NY Post.

I wonder how much they'd fetch on EBAY..

Thanks, Euron.

Probably less than 1 cent per each person that died. Surely it's in rather bad taste to be looking forward to profiting from that.

TBH I was hoping the choice of smiley would indicate that I was merely wondering out of curiosity, rather than a desire to make a profit. Obviously not.
