ABSTRACT:
An achievement award including a novel substantially transparent, injection molded acrylic plaque and a supporting base therefor. The display plaque is provided with a fossil-like, three-dimensional decorative design or image which appears to be embedded in the central body portion of the plaque. The display plaque uniquely includes strategically located bevels that give the plaque the appearance of expensive cut glass and, at the same time, functions to optically mask the mold lines which are formed during the injection molding process. The mold of the invention for use in injection molding the fossilized plaque includes several different types of mold inserts that can be positioned within the mold cavity so as to produce fossil-like designs within the body of the plaque of various shapes such as the shape of a golfer, a bowler, a basketball player and other types of athletic figures.
