I love things like this. Thanks, Brian.
I gave up buying newspapers years ago, but I have a very old copy of "Private Eye's Bumper Book of Boobs". Here are some entries from it, of genuine headlines from yesteryear:
The Times:
Queen Sees Fonteyn Take 10 Curtains
Goldfish Is Saved From Drowning
Evening Standard:
Man Found Dead in Graveyard
Filming In Cemetery Angers Residents
Nixon Picks His Spot
The Times Educational Supplement:
Five Girls Under 16 have Abortions Every Day
Western Gazette:
Mounting Problems for Young Couples
Evening Argus:
Spare Our Trees - They Break Wind
...and possibly my favourite:
DURING NUCLEAR ATTACK THERE WILL BE A SCHOOL HOLIDAY --official
