Will newspaper companies have archives from several years ago?

Question

If so, is it possible to have them reprint certain issues from certain dates. Most aren't going to be older than 7 years old.

Answer 1

All newspapers keep back copies for several years and have many more years on their computers.  They actually call it a morgue.  Call the paper you want copies of and find out exactly what information you need to give them to get the copies you need.

Answer 2

Your local library probably has all you need.

Answer 3

I highly unlikely that they would reprint issues but most do have a copy. They may be able to give you a copy or you may have to make a photocopy. Unless they are a small newspaper in that case they may not have even a copy if they did not keep good track of things.
