Examples of framed shirts
(Click on any of the pictures to view a larger and

If you have an autographed shirt,
don't hide
it away in a drawer.
Framing it can not only enhance the appearance
of your shirt but also protects it from wear and
tear, dirt and dust.
There are many different ways to lay
out the shirts,
with the sleeves sometimes folded across the front
of the shirt, or behind.
The shirts are mounted on to a backing mount and
the top mount is floated above the shirt so that the
shirt does not touch the glass.
With the shirts above and to the
right we have
inserted some text underneath in a separate
aperture describing the shirt and who had
signed it. We often do this especially with
shirts signed by the whole team, listing all of
the players.
As well as inserting text we can
also insert
photos as we have with the shirt on the left.
The shirt was signed and worn by Matt Dawson
in the Rugby Union World Cup Final.
The photos show him in action and then
holding the trophy.
We now have a mount cutter which can cut text
and shapes directly into the mount board.
With the two shirts on the right we have cut text
into the mounts. Click on the pictures to see the
mounts in more detail.
