Let us help turn your newspaper and magazine articles into a beautiful keepsake that you will love for a long time! Preserving your unique article on a personalized plaque is one of the most satisfying things you can experience! Seeing your plaque for the first time is a memorable experience and we’re glad to be a part of it!

All of our plaques are hand-crafted and made in U.S.A!

We buy the finest materials right here locally to produce the highest quality plaque that is going to look great and last a life-time. We use cutting edge technology and equipment to laminate your article to the finest vinyls that protect it from light and moisture. We then permanently mount and heat seal your article to a special wood or acrylic substrate. The edges are beveled and foiled to a silver, black or gold color that makes your plaque look stunning! Finally, we personalize your plaque with a shiny engraved plate that shows your credentials. It’s a great touch that makes it completely yours.

Please take a look at the 3 plaque options that we offer to see which one is best for you:
