I have a US Navy sailor asking me to provide a nice size order of engraved flag display cases. I could make them from scratch, but it would be too time consuming – I don’t have the time & my shop isn’t setup to do it efficiently. The ones I have found online are just too expensive to buy then add my engraving fee.
Does anyone here have a good source for these? Also shadow boxes.

Tim,

There is company called Ultra Thin medals and ribbons here in Moore, OK. Google them...If you can't find their info...let me know.

The last time I spoke with the owner.... they were getting into making shadow boxes. I am sure he would work with you on bulk orders.

They also have a sister company in your area for the coins they produce.

The customer has now been more specific in his request. What he needs is the type of display pictured below.

Sparta Craft carries a similar one. If he's chosey on woods you might have a hard time finding it wholesale.

Most supply Oak or Walnut.

The flags are 3'x5' The certificates are standard 8x11 (I think)

I know JDS carries the flag portion, and I'm sure you could cobble together a case for the certificate to match.

This is in my list of potential vendors, but have not purchased any, so I can't attest to quality.
