Frank Wallace of Vancouver watched as 500 copies of his hometown’s newspaper, dated from May 30, 1925, zoomed on belts overhead.

His daughter-in-law, Deb Wallace, and his one of his sons, John Wallace, surprised Frank Wallace for his 97th birthday on Tuesday with a reprint of The Dispatch-Herald that was published on the day he was born in Erie, Pa.
