Commemorate one of the most important events in American history - Barack Obama's election as the 44th U.S. president.
Preserve this important event with the actual New York Times newspaper on Nov. 5, 2008, which boldly reported Obama's decisive victory over John McCain. [As if they weren't in the tank for him, already. ed.]
Price includes the full newspaper with a resealable plastic envelope. Ground shipping within the Continental United States is included in the purchase price.
Allow up to 2 weeks for shipping.
Price : $14.95
Let's see ... knock off the included shipping costs and you're probably paying $12.00 for a paper that would normally cost $1.50. For the mathematically challenged, that represents an almost 800% increase in the price of the paper!
Maybe the resealable envelope is gold-plated. Or maybe The Times is just getting a jump on next year's tax bill.
