Again, PSM did a great job!
Jersey Framing - How to Do it Right and Protect Your Autograph
You just bought an autographed jersey of your favorite player. Now what? Got to get this coveted piece of sports memorabilia framed of course. Here are 5 tips to help you protect your investment when getting your jersey framed.
#1 – Always have your jersey framed behind UV protective glass. UV glass will not only help protect the signature from fading, but also protect the integrity of the jersey colors. Also, be sure once you hang up your jersey, to have it hang on the side the sun comes into the room (to protect it from direct sunlight)
#2 – Use acid-free double matting. Acid free matting will not fade or bleed. Also, a double matte (meaning one layered on top of the other) adds a beautiful touch to make the framing more appealing. You can also add a 2nd team color to the matte when using a double matte. See below example. Notice how the blue outer and yellow inner matte really bring out the colors of the jersey?

#3 – Choose a quality molding. Yes, a plastic frame will work just fine. But a nice upgrade to a mahogany frame (see below) will really make a jersey pop, such as a San Francisco 49ers.

#4 – Don’t go overboard with loading the frame with 2 photos, pins, an autographed photo, a plaque, etc.. It just takes away from the jersey. Adding one 8×10 photo or a nice plaque will certainly add to the frame, not take away from it. See below Joe Montana examples. One with the tickets, very classy, symmetrical. 2nd Montana jersey, too much stuff, and not well organized.

#5 – Make sure to have your jersey pinned to the back matte, not glued. This will protect the integrity of the jersey in case you ever want to take it out of the frame.
Powers Sports Memorabilia was started by Matt Powers as a way for sports autograph and celebrity memorabilia enthusiasts and collectors to have a high-quality product available at affordable pricing. Having been in the business since 2004, he noticed there wasn’t a website available that included not only signed sports memorabiliaand celebrity autographs, but also high quality custom framing and autograph display cases for everything from autographed baseballs to signed guitars, and more.

Nice autograph. Thank you Matt Powers and his team for this signing event.
Another perfect autograph on my 3000 hit baseball. Always a great experience! Thanks again.
I've had this card since the age of 12. Never had the opportunity until now to get his RC signed. Thanks Matt for making this happen!!
Once again, Matt and his team delivered a smooth, professional experience in obtaining a Dustin Pedroia autograph (with authentication) to a book already containing a number of Red Sox greats’ signatures. I recommend Powers Spirts Memorabilia highly.
Great experience. Card was just as described. Excited to have this added to the collection.

😍 such a nice autograph! Thank you!
Thank you for another awesome autograph!
Mr. Powers delivered on my request for this Cal Ripken jr. autograph. It was a nice size clean and perfect signature better than I expected. Mr. Powers team is quick to respond with any concerns you may have and keeps you posted on your item. I will absolutely be getting more signatures through them to finish my collection. I highly recommend Powers Sports to anyone that has any doubts. I use to do send ins with Steiner sports until he sold, to me Powers picked up where they left off and I couldnt be happier. Thank you
Great experience as usual! I’ll definitely be getting more autographs in the future!!
As good as it gets

Great job by Powers Sports once again! They were able to secure a great signature from Andy Reid on my trading card, using the exact type pen and the exact location that I requested. Accuracy and quality are their top priority!

Awesome experience as usual!
Great experience! I had never gotten any autographs through a signing like this before and I had a number of questions. Someone called me right back & couldn’t have been nicer. The customer service was outstanding every step of the way & I couldn’t be happier with the Reggie Jackson autographed ticket.
Nice to have a trading card signed by Wade Boggs in his Yankees uniform. Thanks Matt Powers and his team for this signing event.
Nice to have my Rookie Card signed by Manny Ramirez himself. Thanks Matt Powers and his team for this signing event.
