Personalised Guinness Book of Records - 1955 - Gift Details
A reproduction of the first EVER edition of the world famous Guinness Book of Records – see where it all began!
Know someone who’s always debating in the pub about worldly topics? Do they always think they’re right? This gift is definitely worthy of their attention... we’re delighted to present our very own reproduction of the very first edition of the Guinness Book of Records, which includes every page and every record as it appeared in the August 1955 edition.
Now, your fact-loving friend, whether it’s your dad or granddad, can back up their statements with the truth, and nothing but the truth. This original edition reprint will assist in resolving many disputes and may, we hope, turn fury into fun.
This personalised Guinness World Records gift offers a fantastic insight into the world as it once was. But best of all, this original edition reprint has their name embossed in gold on the front of it.
To commemorate this strictly-limited print run of 5,000 copies, the reprint is beautifully presented within an exclusive collector’s slipcase – even the original version didn’t have that – and every copy is individually numbered.
Take a look inside!
This fabulous personalised Guinness book of records reproduction is packed with black and white photos and astounding facts. The world in the 1950s was indeed a completely different place. Back then, the most expensive hotel room cost £16 8s per night, (nowadays, it’s nearly £23,000); the most costly bottle of wine in the world was £8 (now, it’s almost £32,000).
A fabulous keepsake for your own bookshelf or the perfect gift for your fact-loving friend or relative, this personalised Guinness World Records first edition reprint is not available in bookshops; you can only purchase it here. So what are you waiting for?

This unique gift can be personalised by embossing any name on the cover.
