2. Subscription to a History Magazine: Subscribe your grandpa to a history magazine that caters to his interests. This will allow him to explore different topics and keep up with new discoveries and research in the field.

4. Personalized Historical Map: Consider getting your grandpa a beautifully framed and personalized historical map showcasing a place of significance to him, such as his birthplace or a city he is passionate about. This gift will not only appeal to his interest in history but also hold sentimental value.

5. Ancestry DNA Kit: Help your grandpa delve deeper into his family history by gifting him an Ancestry DNA kit. This will allow him to trace his genetic roots and discover more about his heritage and the historical events that shaped his family's journey.

6. Tickets to Historical Film or Theater Production: Keep an eye out for any historical films or theater productions that might be playing in your area and get tickets for your grandpa. This will give him the chance to immerse himself in history while enjoying a night out.

7. History-themed Board Games: There are several history-themed board games available that can be both educational and fun. Find a board game that focuses on a specific era or event, and enjoy quality time together while expanding his knowledge.

8. Museum Membership: If your grandpa enjoys visiting museums, consider gifting him a membership to a local history museum. This will give him unlimited access to exhibitions, lectures, and events that cater to his interests.

9. Documentaries and Films: Research and compile a collection of historically accurate documentaries or films that your grandpa hasn't seen yet. Presenting him with a selection of carefully chosen documentaries will give him many hours of educational entertainment.

10. Customized Historical Calendar: Create a personalized calendar featuring historical photos, facts, and dates that are significant to your grandpa. It will serve as a daily reminder of his love for history.

Remember, choosing a gift that aligns with your grandpa's passion for history will not only make it meaningful but also show how well you know and value his interests.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.
