1972 50th Birthday On This Day Personalised Crossword Print

You choose a date in 1972 and we'll use it to create a brilliant 'on the day you were born' crossword print showing events that happened on the same date but in different years.  For example, if you choose 18th October 1972, we'll fill your print with events that took place on 18th October in other years.

This unique print is a brilliant gift for anyone turning 50 in 2022.

You can customise the crossword clue for the year1972, so you can create a really personal print. For example, you could add a clue like 'Kevin (world's loudest dad) is born' or 'Dawn, world's best pizza maker, is born'. 

Imagine the surprise when whoever you're giving this print to discovers their own date of birth on the crossword!

A mix of different events will appear on your crossword. There will be at least 20 dates, including historically important events, dates on which famous people were born or died, events from music and entertainment, and any other interesting dates we come across while researching your date.

The date appears at the bottom of the print, as a title, and the year, 1972, is shown in larger text than the other years in the crossword grid. The age, 50, appears in large, pale grey text behind the crossword clues.

Personalisation

There's a picture in the gallery that shows the personalisation options:

• personalised with any date from 1972 (day and month) - your date is shown as a title at the bottom of the print
• personalised with a crossword clue for your chosen date - this appears among the clues printed below the crossword grid
• add your own (optional) subtitle - this is printed right at the bottom of the print, below the title
