Framed Antique Monopoly Game with Railroad Stock CertificatesAll that can be said is WOW!
As a framer to several antique stock dealers, one of the most popular sets I have framed is when collectors and dealers would want me to frame a set of Monopoly stock certificates for them.
Over the years, my framing business, Museum Framing, must have framed numerous sets for different people/companies. One thing to note is that many stock certificate sets offered have a 4th certificate, under Short Line RR, which has been the subject of much debate.
One thing we know is that it was representative of Short Line cars within the Atlantic City/New Jersey area. This could be the certificate in this set or the Atlantic City and Shore Railroad - both of which I have groupings available, depending on your preference.
The Antique Monopoly frames ensemble has been one of the most popular framed sets we have assembled. This display encases a vintage monopoly game set (real wood houses and hotels) in play with four genuine antique stock certificates of the Railroads surrounding the game board. No glazing is involved in this framing to add 3-D life to this impressive ensemble. A great conversation piece for any home or office décor. This presentation will make a statement in an office setting or home. Very stunning and bold.
The frame is newly assembled. The stock certificates are antique. If you prefer more sets or a custom designed set, we carry several sets of certificates in stock with the genuine Short Line certificates that were issued from New Jersey which corresponded with the original Monopoly game's intentions.
If you want quantities or another set(s), let me know what design, finish or style you prefer. I may need a couple weeks to purchase the monopoly set as I need a vintage, fully intact set. I have the stocks on hand, so that's not a problem.
Discounts can be made on a quantity, but, again, let's discuss timing.

This map has been 100% museum grade framed with all the proper reversible methods including 99% UV filtered plexiglass by Tru Vue, a renowned framing glass manufacturer, 100% cotton rag matting and backing and archival coroplast final backing. No tapes, glues, or adhesives were used in the mounting of this document.
In 1989, when other framing businesses he patronized failed to meet his expectations for true conservation framing, Rick started his framing business, known as Museum Framing, to properly frame his collection and inventory. He believed that framing should be performed according to strict preservation standards using archival techniques and materials. Why pay a framer to ruin your item? Well, that's what you do when majority of framing establishments treat a historical collectible like a poster! I had to learn the hard way before I jumped into learning conservation framing 30 years ago.
Shortly after, we offered our services to other dealers and collectors we met and knew through collecting circles. In addition to dealers and collectors, Museum Framing also frames for museums, galleries, federal and state government agencies and the public. Please check our framing reviews of "Museum Framing" under Yelp and Google.
We offer real wholesale prices to collectors and dealers due to our background.
Timeline wise, Rick started as a collector in 1974, then a dealer in 1981 and, eventually, owning an archival framing business since 1989.
Recently, we started,
Frameabilia
, where Rick added his original passion of framing and selling historical artifacts (ancient coins, historical documents, antique maps, collectible currency) to his current framing business. We do this through our new ecommerce site.
