Any Ideas

When Jimmy played in Myrtle Beach last May I was lucky enough to meet him and he was kind enough to sign my shirt. I was looking for a nice way to display the shirt in a frame of some kind or something similar in our bar room in our house. As this is one of my most prized items I would really like to make it look nice. I was wondering if anyone has done anything similar or may have any ideas on how to display the shirt. It is a Margaritaville Hawaiin shirt that buttons down the front.

Thanks

I posted this in Summer 2005, but here is my framed jersey if you need an idea of what to do.

We had jimmy sign one of my wifes breasts in Vegas a few years ago, so now we have that hanging over our fireplace. At least I get to see it once in awhile... [smilie=blush.gif]

We had a framing company do that with my father-in-law's (RIP) naval uniform, including his hat and a picture of the U.S.S New Jersey with his entire crew aboard.

Very Cool!!!

scan it in and make a screen saver of it. Your clients will be impressed at your intent visual scrutiny of their files on your computer. :pirate:

The way the firm's computers are set up, we can't change the screen saver. Whatever the default is, that's what we're stuck with.
