"China's Flourishing Period", the world's first newspaper printed on gold paper, is available for collectors in Beijing.

The rare edition is printed on 16,000 square centimetres of gold paper, and the luxury edition is on a sheath of 39,000 square centimetres. Collectors with fat wallets can find the books at Wangfujing Book Store in downtown Beijing.
