Hi all!
I'm new here and needed a little advice if possible.
I've been asked to frame a couple of boxing gloves. They are after a plastic dome frame, but i am unable to get my hands on any at a reasonable price. Does anybody know where i would be able to get some, possibly looking to buy in bulk.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Another forum member was looking for the same thing last year and must have found a supplier as he now sells them on his website. You could try contacting him to see where he gets them from?

Re: Sports memorabilia
Thanks for the response guys.
I did originally try a search but could not find any definitive answers.
There are some really good ideas for different ways to frame the gloves but he was pretty set on the plastic dome framing.

Re: Sports memorabilia
It may be worth looking at some of the suppliers for retail display systems, as some of these offer perspex cubes for standing merchantise upon in shop window displays. There are lots of these companies to choose from, the company which I have used from time to time is Morplan, but there's plenty of other to shop around with and compare products and prices.
