Headlines are a very effective way to put a story into its contemporary context and are often used as a kind of visual shorthand. Especially useful in documentaries, historical stories and books they are an increasingly popular way of providing a reminder of how things were.

With more than 200 years of coverage we have an incredible range of headlines to choose from and with The Times (dating from 1787) and News of the World (started in 1843) in our stable we can provide a mix of perspectives as well.

Since The Sun was started more than thirty years ago its unique and distinctive headlines have been its hallmark and provide iconic reminders of key events.

We have every copy of all our newspapers available as hard copy or on microfilm to help your research and can negotiate special rates for large amounts of material.
