Seeking
to thank their major suppliers in a unique and memorable
way, the Product team at Smith and Wesson determined to
offer a ‘Quality Supplier Award’ and chose A D 2000 Inc.
to create a custom hologram plaque for the occasion. In
order to make use of the specific firearm rather than a
model (as holograms images are a one-to-one ratio with the
object from which they are created), a hologram image size
of 8" X 10” was necessary. A D 2000 Inc.
determined that a glass Di-Chromated Gelatin (DCG) style
hologram would most accurately represent the gray metallic
features of the pistol.
As
DCG is sandwiched between plates of glass for archival longevity,
the ample 14” X 20” base of ½”
thick black acrylic required the milling of a deep recess
to accommodate it. The surface of ¼” clear
acrylic was then reverse screened with the ‘window’
showing the hologram as well as the type copy.
Individually
polished and hand assembled, these amazing plaques were
delivered on schedule and awarded to 35 well deserving recipients
