National Register Customized Plaque
National Register Customized Historic Plaques
Across the country, an array of sites, districts, buildings and other structures feature a plaque commemorating their membership in the National Register of Historic Places. Because the National Register does not issue any markers of its own, it’s the responsibility of the site’s owner to display a historic plaque — which is optional but offers immense value to visitors and future owners of the property.
At Erie Landmark Company, a division of Paul W. Zimmerman Foundries, we provide a seamless process for ordering and customizing an aluminum or bronze historic marker for your piece of history.
The Value and Uses of Historic Plaques
Historic plaques offer value in a variety of ways to communities, including through the following:
- Build a sense of community with your neighbors and local businesses.
- Drive economic growth through increased tourism and interest.
- Preserve and highlight the historical landmarks within your community.
- Educate visitors and locals about the history of your area.
Due to their value, many organizations and individuals invest in historic markers, including:
- Museums
- Homeowners
- Historical societies
- And more
Options for National Register Custom Plaques and More
We provide several options for national register custom plaques and other types of plaques, including:
- Material: Choose between an aluminum or bronze historic plaque.
- Border: Pick from four different borders for your plaque, including a single line, double line, beveled edge or intertwined.
- Background Color: Select a black, brown, hunter green, carnival red, royal blue, pewter (aluminum only) or natural background color for your historic plaque.
- Coating: Add a protective clear coat to your plaque.
- Mounting: Prepare your plaque for display with a rear (works best for brick and stone) or front (works best for wood and stucco) mount. Rosettes are available to cover your front mount screws.
- Font: Choose from more than 10 font types or request a specific font for your historic plaque.
- Wording: Customize your plaque with one of two standard National Register phrases: “Has been placed on the National Register,” or “Is listed in the National Register.”
- Inscription: Tell your historic landmark’s story with three lines of text for visitors to read as they pass by or stop in at your historic location.
If you’d like to incorporate photographs, logos, addresses or other details into your aluminum or bronze historic plaque, we can help with that too.
