CHURCH HILL CLASSICS INTRODUCES NEW 

“COLLEGIATE SPORTS FRAMES”

Monroe, CT – May 28, 2008 - Church Hill Classics is stepping up to the plate to expand its collegiate frame line to commemorate the victories and accomplishments in the world of college sports.  Recently launched, these specialized frames are a popular addition to our expansive line of diploma, photo, and certificate frames. The Collegiate Sports Frames present yet another option for colleges and universities to showcase the excellence of their sports programs as well as capture and preserve momentous events. 

What, you might ask, sets these frames above and apart from other framed sports products?  It’s all in the attention to details! 

According to Church Hill Classics’ Vice President Joe Voves, “Many people purchase sports-art simply because they love the subject matter – often not looking closely at the way the item is framed until it gets hung on their wall.  Unfortunately, when they finally look closely at the quality of the framing from the moulding and matting to the proportions and details, they’re often disappointed.  We wanted to change that by lending our expertise in professional framing to this exciting market.  We are perfectionists and our products reflect that.  The initial feedback from resellers and end-customers has been phenomenal!”

There are three frame styles that make up the new Sports line, which can be designed for most NCAA football or basketball programs.  Church Hill Classics works together with university buyers and licensing offices to customize the products for each school and program.  These frames are “Made in the USA” and feature our stepped-profile black “Arena” moulding that is made with 100% recycled wood.

The Fanfare Sports Frames showcase the university’s sports insignia recessed in a bevel cut-out, below a matted photo of the school stadium or arena in the university’s spirit colors.

The Dynasty Sports Frames feature a photo of the university’s campus stadium or arena along with a detailed history of the school’s athletic program.  Like the Fanfare, these frames are also done in the “Arena” moulding and set into a single mat in the university’s spirit color.  Dynasty frames include a “spirit” medallion of the university’s logo that really adds great value.

The top-of-the-line Legacy Sports Frames feature the university’s campus stadium or arena centered between two informational panels that can be customized with details about the school’s athletic program history, summary of a winning season, season stats, fight song etc.  With an enameled “spirit” medallion incorporated into an elegant double groove mat design, the Legacy Sports Frame can also be designed for most NCAA football or basketball programs.
