That’s not quite right.
It’s not that difficult to find something with the correct date. Birth, marriage and death registers all contain a date for each individual entry. There are plenty of such registers that still have plenty of space left.
Look up the date, and you’ll have the age.

What’s considerably more difficult is finding the leaflets (such as the Rosette page and the others) from the same period. That’s because they aren’t dated.
