The Old Post is a pre-War newspaper company. Copies of the Old Post can be found in the Commonwealth.

Background[]

Issues of the Old Post can be found in restrooms around the Commonwealth, including in the bathroom of the Sole Survivor's house in Sanctuary Hills.

Notes[]

The newspaper is described as an illustrated weekly newspaper, featuring only lorem ipsum gibberish, with a date of Wednesday, November 24, 1892. It notes the establishment year was 1869, with a price of "6d." The headline "Way of the Future!" is prominently printed.

Appearances[]

The Old Post newspaper appears only in Fallout 4.

Behind the scenes[]

  • In actuality, November 24, 1892 was a Thursday.
  • The headline "Way of the Future!" is the same line Leonardo DiCaprio's character Howard Hughes repeats over and over at the end of the film The Aviator.
  • The newspaper appears to be a customizable template, with the text consisting of Lorem Ipsum, a faux Latin, meaningless placeholder used in the design industry.
