Uh...yeah. I'm gonna to have to go ahead and sorta disagree with you.
My basement is littered with framed newspapers, partly because both my father and grandfather were newspaper photographers, but I still think old newspapers make great display pieces. These are actual pieces of history! Sold on the street the actual day, or day after, the event occurred!
The 1935 Tiger world series win newspaper went for around $200 on ebay a year or so ago, so I don't think they're exactly cheap. Admittedly, it is not wise to handle them since they will fall apart, and framing them can be tricky.
