Certificate Quality
All our Certificates are Commemoratives, un-official (non Government approved)
and
are intended to be used as display documents only. Under penalties of law,
these documents may not be used for any official purpose.
All Certificates are personalized based on the amount of information
you provide to us.
Each certificate is personally processed, reinforced with card stock and inserted into a
clear glassine protector prior to shipping.
Reinforcement is added to the envelope so that your certificate (s) will
arrive intact regardless of how the Post Office handles them, I guarantee
they will not be wet, bent or creased.
If the Post Office does damage you certificates we will replace
them at no
charge.
Printing Process:
I have been using an offset
printing process for the past 12 years. All images are printed in 4 color separation using
waterproof ink. This process produces a glossy, crisp, raised image effect
which
reflects light and will never fade or wash out.
All Certificates are printed on a
32# Ivory Parchment -
which is slightly yellowed or off white in color
In some cases you'll see examples of certificates that were never issued to you by the
government, such as unit citation certificates. The government did
issue unit award certificates to the individual Commands, and these certificates are
a close representation of those.
when I started this business, my original
intent was to replace my own certificates that were lost in a Tornado
several years ago, and this has evolved to what you see here today.
I
also done freelance graphics work for Paramount Pictures, Fox Studios and
Touchstone, you will see
some of my Certificates in the remake of "The Manchurian Candidate"
staring Denzel Washington, the CBS show "The Unit", the Lifetime
Network show
"Army Wives" and of late, the movie "Men who View
Sheep"
