Anniversary Gifts with a Historical Twist: Unveil the Past with Thoughtful Subscriptions

Looking for a truly unique and meaningful anniversary gift that stands out? Ditch the roses and chocolates, and get them a History Subscription from History By Mail. Our historical artifacts and documents collections bring an experience that is as educational as it is really a deep memory. Whether it be your first anniversary or your fiftieth, this history-based gift creates lifetime memories and presents for interesting conversations.

The Charm of History as a Gift

History is much beyond dates and events; it is more of stories, emotions, and what they have in common in terms of time. A historical subscription as an anniversary gift takes you through a journey that adds a touch of something personal to almost any form of celebration. From the letters and the documents to the memorabilia which are literally history tied with important events, these bring history to life in some very strange and heart-touching ways.

A subscription to A History By Mail is so much more than a gift. It is an experience: every month your recipient will receive a well-thought-out historical item carefully picked with relevance to him or her. Whether it is an artifact from a specific historical period that he or she loves, a notable event that he or she has always wanted to know more about, or a collection of documents that dive into an era he or she admires, our service gives the most unforgettable anniversary gift.

That continuous thrill of excitement accompanies this anniversary gift as one awaits what is to happen the following months.
