Sports Memorabilia Framing

Sports Memorabilia Framing & Display Cases

Sports memorabilia framing turns jerseys, balls, bats, gloves, belts, and other keepsakes into custom display cases built to your exact size. At CustomPictureFrames.com we build shadow box display cases deep enough for three-dimensional items, with interior backing in your choice of color and clear framer's grade acrylic. We have framed everything from golf balls and baseball bats to championship belts and skateboards, and the examples below are real finished projects. Standard orders ship in 3-5 business days. Open the shadow box designer to enter your dimensions and set up your display.

Custom Display Cases for Any Sports Keepsake

A sports display case is a shadow box, deep enough to clear a three-dimensional item, with interior backing and glazing to keep the piece visible and protected. The right depth depends on what you are framing: a folded jersey needs less than a baseball, which needs less than a championship belt with a raised center plate. The designer lets you set width, height, and depth independently so the case fits the item, not the other way around.

Interior backing is selectable in a few colors so the item reads cleanly against its background. Glazing is clear framer's grade acrylic, which is lighter than glass, an advantage that matters on deeper builds.

When you know your dimensions, open the shadow box frames hub for the full shadow box lineup, or jump straight into the designer above.

Add an Engraved Nameplate

A brass engraved nameplate gives a sports display a finished, gallery look. Add the player name, the date, the score, the event, or the story behind the keepsake. The plate mounts on the interior backing or the moulding face and reads clean against any backing color.

See engraving styles, finishes, and layout options on the brass nameplates page, then return to the designer to add one to your display.

What Else We Can Frame

If you do not see your item above, it does not mean we cannot frame it. We have built display cases for mini helmets, footballs, soccer balls, hockey pucks, tennis balls, racquets, jerseys with attached patches, and one-off keepsakes that have no category. The rule we use is simple: if you can mail it, we can frame it.

For items we have not framed yet, we do not post a fabricated demo photo on this page. Send us a note describing the piece and the rough dimensions, and we will help you size the case in the designer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sports items can you frame?

Jerseys, baseballs and bats, basketballs, golf balls, clubs and pin flags, boxing and UFC gloves, fight trunks, championship belts, skateboards, vinyl records, and most other mailable keepsakes. If it fits in a shadow box, we can build a display for it at your exact size.

How deep are the display cases?

Shadow box depth is selectable in the designer to suit the item. Shallow depth handles jerseys and folded fabric. Standard depth handles single balls, gloves, and most keepsakes. Deeper builds handle bats, championship belts with raised plates, and bulky combined displays. Pick the depth that clears your item by a comfortable margin.

Can you frame signed items?

Yes. Signed jerseys, balls, gloves, and prints are common. Clear framer's grade acrylic keeps the case light to hang and the signature clearly visible from any angle.

Do you add engraved nameplates?

Yes. Brass engraved nameplates can be added to any sports display for the player name, date, score, event, or whatever the piece commemorates. See the brass nameplate page for finish and layout options.

What sizes do you build?

Every case is built to your exact dimensions, not pulled from a stock-only catalog. Enter the inside width, height, and depth in the shadow box designer and pricing updates in real time. There is no standard sports-display size, so we leave that decision to the item being framed.

How long do display cases take to ship?

Standard orders ship in 3-5 business days. Deeper builds and oversized cases follow the same window in most cases. Every display case is made to order at your specified dimensions and tracking goes out by email when the order ships.
