Having owned and operated my sign shop since late 1970, I created wood signs
for commercial businesses in northern Wisconsin.
With my 6 children moving away and starting families of their own,
I relocated to the mountains of NE Tennessee in May of 2002,
scaling down my operations to smaller signs & plaques.
Only new wood is used, but everything is distressed to impart a look of heritage.
All lettering & artwork is accomplished by hand.
No decals or vinyl graphics are employed.  
All materials and enamels are made in the USA.
Being a Marine gave me many contacts in the Corps,
but many of my dearest friends served in
the Army, Navy and Air Force,
and they are all treated with the respect they earned.
Shown are some samples, but do not comprise
the entire inventory.  
Any custom requests will receive a prompt reply,

Marine Corps Emblem, 12"x12" overall; Globe is 6" diameter
* Name and Chevron are hand-lettered in Gold & Scarlet.
Available in 4 background finishes; Marine Green is shown.
Photos of the others will be sent if interested.
* It's suggested that a "Friendly" first name be used, due to the
size of the Globe.  The service time is needed to determine if
the Chevron will have Crossed Rifles.

Since all my work is custom, nothing can be immediately shipped.
Most plaques are finished in 7 to 10 days.  Should I not be able to fulfill that commitment,
a personal contact will be made with the details.
I've also chosen Priority Mailing with the U.S. Postal Service.  
They accept a PO Box, and deliver on Saturdays.
Even during rush periods, most plaques arrive within the country in 3 days.

INFO
I've tried to operate on the Honor System
but there are those who have no honor.
So I have no choice but to ship plaques
only after receiving payment.
VET Signs specializes in signs and plaques, specifically for
Active Duty Military and Veterans.
Although originally intended for personal decor,
many have been used as awards and retirement gifts.
I do not accept donations,
but I provide custom work that may be higher or lower in price
than plaques shown on this website.
After all the details have been covered with separate e-mails,
this Donation Button is provided for an easy payment............
