Baseball Backstop Net Frame

Upon a visit to the Steiner Sports warehouse, we unearthed a large amount of backstop netting from older MLB ballparks.  The netting is all there is between the fans seated behind home plate and fast-moving foul tips.  We developed several samples of a wall-mounted shadow box with the netting mounted in a wood frame in front of an image of a pitcher delivering to home plate.  Putting the viewer in the venue, enjoying the game... safely.

This item is no longer available but if you or your organization is interested in frames or shadow boxes, please reach out to us to discuss.

Project Details

 

These samples were crafted as a way to make use of the backstop netting found in most ballparks.  Two sizes were created: 11" x 14" and 10" x 12" The netting is carefully mounted toward the front edge to create a shadow box effect.  Add your team's imagery to bring the look of the game to your home or office.

Tokens is based on the creative re-use of existing, authentic materials.  Often times we get an inspiration or receive some materials from a client that triggers a design concept.  In many cases, we find real materials deserve real samples.  While these are not for sale, they are shown here as a representation of our capabilities.  If your organization has some materials that you'd like to memorialize in this fashion, we'd love to collaborate on a custom program with you.
