What Makes It Uncommon

Extra Extra Special Day

On their birthday, they're front page news. Inside this personalized book are Chicago Tribune front pages from each year since their birth, creating a fascinating snapshot of history. The over-sized, library-bound collection was designed to be displayed—whether on a coffee table or desk—but it also makes a great addition to a shelf of classics. Made in Williston, Vermont.

This is a made-to-order item that ships directly from the maker. If you order today your item will ship no later than 4/9/2025.

Items that are made to order or oversized can't be sent in a Gift Box. Instead, you can include your Gift Message on the shipment's packing slip.  At this time, this item cannot be shipped to APO/FPO addresses, or to U.S. Territories including Minor Outlyling Islands. Contact custom@uncommongoods.com with any questions.

Shipping outside of the U.S.? You will be quoted a specific delivery timeframe at checkout, based on your destination country and the available shipping methods. See International FAQ for more info.

Notes

Chicago Tribune Custom Birthday Book has a page minimum, so only dates in 1999 or before can be ordered at this time. The book includes front pages from the year of the recipient's birth onward. Please note that additional pages featuring noteworthy events from other dates may be added at then end of the book to meet the required 80 page count. Please note: These pages are not standard newspaper dimensions, therefore, the type is shrunk slightly to fit a more convenient, book-sized trim. Certain years/pages are reprinted from microfilm and font size may be reduced. Missing pages may be the result of a newspaper strike or a lack of relevant information on the front page for that date.

Once your order is submitted it is entered into production and changes and cancellations cannot be accommodated- we are sorry, no exceptions. We do our best to turn orders around as quickly as possible and as a result, orders begin production immediately. - All Orders Final
