Frequently Asked Questions

Can I gift this to myself?
Of course! We think this makes a lovely gift, whether to yourself or to a loved one. Many receivers of historic letters find that they start to inherently look forward to their mail arriving every week!

Are these letters real?
Absolutely - the letters we mail out are reproductions of real letters or messages that were written by historical figures. Many of them changed the course of history as we know it.

I love this idea but need a physical gift for my gift exchange.
The Gift Packs are for physical letters, but we appreciate that you might want to be able to give something during a gift exchange. That's why every order comes with a printable certificate that you can gift first.

Do you have a welcome letter?
Yes, we send you a personalized digital certificate that you can download and email or print off.

Can I see a sample letter?
Yes - you can check out our sample letter here.

What is the difference between the 10 weeks, 25 weeks and 52 week packs?
Where possible we try to create a full experience that will take the reader on a full and rewarding journey from the founding of the United States of America with letters from George Washington all the way to letters from Henry Ford, the founder of the automobile industry in the United States and beyond. However, the 52 week packs will naturally deliver a richer and deeper experience as there are more letters.

Are the Gift Packs charged on a one-time payment basis?
Yes, to avoid any hassle or unexpected headaches, all our Gift Packs are strictly one-time payments. You will only be charged once, upon placing the order.

I received the 10 week pack as a gift and absolutely loved it - can I get the 25 week and 52 week one now?
Yes you can; we try our hardest to avoid letter overlaps between the 10 week, 25 week and 52 week gift packs so any one can begin the journey anew.
