Picture Frames


















I have done lots of picture frames in the past...many of them in the style I like to call "shadow box" style. I have had these posters from the Flemington Speedway Historical Society for a while now and have always intended to mount at least one in a frame to add to my bar room collection. Being that it would go into the bar room, the style and make up of the frame was already decided for me since I had a number out there already...all in the same style...that being made of red oak with walnut inlay in the face of the frames and in the shadow box style.

Since I had three of these posters, I thought that hell, I could make three frames just as easy as one and I could do something with the other two. I decided to give one to my racing buddy Sparky and I would donate the other one to an annual chinese auction that is held at the New Egypt Speedway on a night called the "Friends of Mike Night" a night dedicated to the memory of a former speedway fan that died way to early. The proceeds of the auction, as well as many other revenue streams all goes toward the nights racing division purses. I thought it a worthy cause.

The poster involves the Flemington Speedway all time top ten modified divisions winningest drivers.
