You really should open an exhibition of these....I am still choking...

Ah, the wonderful front-page splashes on the Southwark News. The golden age was round 1999-2001 - I have kept several of them, notably...

David or anyone, is it possible to get hold of these classic headlines that go into newsagent's A-boards?

[jumpinjourno]

The headline that appears on an A-board outside retailers of the said newswpaper tend to be the Headline on the front page that day or week. They may alter slightly in number of words but the content generally remains the same... it is simply a matter of looking through the archives at the past issues and the stories on the front page...

When I get a moment in the office, I shall pick out a selection and relay one to you each time I post a comment...

Maybe get a game of headline tennis going with other newspapers... the SLP, local Guardian etc...
