Birthday History Plaque By Shopper (Lindenhurst, NY) - September 30, 2011 I love The Day You Were Born History Plaque. It is very interesting to read about events that happened on your Special Day. The plaque is a good size so it won't be overpowering on a wall when displayed. Great gift idea.

Birthday History Plaque review Disappointed that cost of living comparative data only went to 2010, not 2011. Many people commented on that. Gasoline, for example, is now $1 more per gallon than it was a year ago. Being that we're almost halfway through 2011, I feel that the data should have been updated to that point. Other than that, I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Nice gift but small print By Shopper (Glenview, IL) - May 31, 2011 This is a nice gift to reminisce over and share with friends and family. We gave it to a neighbor for his 90th birthday. He didn't open his gifts at the party so we still have yet to hear from him. The only downside to the item is that the print is quite small. When we took it out to see it and wrap it we cringed a bit at the type size.

Great Product By Shopper (Henderson, KY) - March 15, 2011 It looks great and the quality is amazing. The only negative is I bought it in 2011 and the date it used for current things was 2009. Still a great gift though.

Very decorative & made well By Shopper (Bronx, NY) - February 27, 2011 This is a great gift. I like the personalized touch & feel it's a unique gift. A while back I ordered a 50th wedding anniversary gift & liked that I could have it personalized to that event.
|
Very nice frame By Shopper (Canada) - February 19, 2011 I really like this, got it for a birthday gift, the only thing they made a mistake with the name, but personalization mall was amazing with the service. they send me another one in such little time...

Very Nice Plaque This turned out very well and will look great on the table next to the special cake and gifts for this big birthday. My only concern was that there isn't quite as much history information on it as I'd thought there would, but there's enough and it may look too crowded if there was more, I guess. I think it was a little pricey for what it is; well with the shipping charges. It is a very nice, special gift though for a "big" birthday and, especially, for history buffs. Since his bday isn't until 2/10 I don't have it out yet to get a pic. I do have an easel stand for it and a "corner" ribbon and bow on it, so it should look great on the table. Will send a pic after the big day, if I still can.

Very cool I got this gift for my ma, for her 50th birthday. Loved how has all the events, hits songs and major stuff. Great, fun, birthday gift!

Nice unique gift This is a neat gift to give anyone, especially someone who has everything. Not much to say about it, it's well constructed and laminated (or apparently so) onto a thick plaque of wood, even though it appears in the picture that it's just a framed piece of paper. It has slots drilled into the back of the wood for mounting on the wall, or you can order it with the optional wooden easel and stand it up on any flat surface.
It has a good diversity of information, but I definitely would have focused on the Events/News section and made it encompass the entire birth year (like they did with almost all of the other categories) rather than just the month. Quite important things might have occurred that year, but if they didn't happen in that specific month the recipient wouldn't know about it form this plaque. Even in the example the sports section is larger than the Events section, and personally I think historical events are more important and interesting than the sporting events in a given year.
Anyway, still a good gift, I just would have made a few tweaks.

unique birthday gift just like the preview...great

Higher quality than expected The item I ordered arrived quickly which was a plus because I needed it within the same week. I made a HUGE mistake by putting the wrong birth year when I ordered the plaque so the information is all wrong -- but, that's my fault.
I didn't pay attention to the item description and I thought it was going to be a paper certificate of some sort that would need a frame. So, I was pleasantly surprised when I opened a plaque instead.
The only issue I had is the birth year was only compared to 2009 and not 2010 as I had hoped.

beautiful presentation Love the design the quality of the frame and the information requested for my baby Valentine birthday. She will be so impress on Valentine's Day . Thank you for such a smooth delivery and I appreciate your kindness In keeping me up to date via email. satisfied customer Andrea T.

interesting, but not very personal Other than my daughter's name being printed on the plaque, it is obvious that this is made for mass production.
|
Excellent choice A great belated Happy Birthday gift for my husband who celebrated his 89th birthday in June.
|
Great gift for the person who has everything. My daughter is very difficult to buy for but this birthday gift made her very happy. She and her daughters laugh as they read the History of the Day she was born.
|
interesting This was a very nice idea and much more useful then one of those books from the card store. The writing is abit small but it is certainly a conversation piece.
|
Great gift! I bought this for my grandfathers 75th birthday. It's a great gift for a monumental birthday!
|
Satisfied Customer I just want to send you guys a thank you for such a great product. I purchased the birthday history plaque for my mother-in-law who celebrated her 96th birthday. She was thrilled as well as all who attended her celebration.

Present for my husband's 50th birthday It was nice but the print was a little too small. I was kind of dissapointed when I opened the package. My husband and friends really loved it though.

Nice ideas By Shopper (Overland Park, KS) - September 22, 2016 I was looking for a unique gift for my soon to be 40 year old son. this did it!

Good Gift - Hard to Read/Small Print By Shopper (Dacula, GA) - July 14, 2016 The plaque was well-received and I had it express-shipped so it arrived on time. The print is so small on the 8x10 that I can barely read it and it was a gift for a 90 year old and she could not read the print without a large magnifying glass...so...I'm going to have to buy another one and order a very large size which I'm very disappointed about. Be sure to order a larger size than 8x10.
|
O.K. Product By Shopper (Anchorage, AK) - April 15, 2016 It is o.k.; reasonably well made and reasonably attractive. But the info is nothing much and it just isn't worth the cost.
|
quality not great By Shopper (Lewiston, NY) - March 29, 2016 Nice idea, nice information. Quality not great.
|
Smaller than you think! By Shopper (Shreveport, LA) - February 5, 2016 Maybe the dimensions were given, but I didn't see. This item is nice except I bought it for my 90 year old mother-in-law. I had trouble reading it because the print in so small so I am pretty sure she will have trouble reading it as well. I was disappointed in the size.
|
Font too small The only problem I have with this gift, is that the font is too small. Maybe a bigger plaque would be better? This was for my 80 yr old Dad's birthday. We had to put a magnifying glass out with this picture so that everyone could read it.
|
Nice Idea This was a gift for my 90 year old mother's birthday. The idea is great but execution could've better! The font is so tiny it can barely be read.
|
Nice but small writing It is a nice plaque but the writing is way to small ! Plaque needs to be 11" x 14" and then the writing may be big enough to read easily .
|
birtday pague I loved it till my wife got heart broke when it said actor Marlon Brando and her had the same birthday she was happy she wanted to find out more about him and she did also his birthday is April not March
|
A Year Behind The product was nice but the comparison dates were 1964 -2013. This year is 2014 so I found that to be odd. I used it to commentate my husband's 50th birthday, which happened in 2014. Other than that it was great.
|
day u were born plaque I received my plaque today. Everything about the plaque and card was very colorful and distinguished. As it was for an older friend, I found the writing much too small. I am thinking of including a magnifying glass in the gift box. I wish there had been less information, therefore leaving more space for larger lettering.
|
Font too small The font is way to small , not happy with this purchase The frame is beautiful but the font is awful
|
An alright piece By Shopper (Richmond, VA) - February 28, 2014 The background color is a tad too yellow, missing the mark for the parchment look. Additionally, the typeface for the details is too small.
|
Birthday Plaque By Shopper (Chicago, IL) - January 24, 2014 It is a great gift. More detail about the birth year would be great. Comparison was from the bith year to 2012. I think it should be a bit more up to date.
|
Better if updated I gave this product as a gift and the only complaint I have is that it should have been updated. The comparisons were from 2 years ago........
|
Magnifying Glass, Please By Shopper (Springfield, IL) - March 15, 2011 Overall, it is a nice item but the print is so small that I had to buy a magnifying glass to read it.
|
Linda I have ordered numerous items from Personalization Mall; unfortunately, this plaque was not the quality expected. I would not recommend this as a present.
|
Birthday Plaque I expected the plaque to be 8-1/2 x 11, other than that it is very nice. I think you should put the size on your site.
|
Not as nice as I had hoped, The birthday plaque was not as nice as I had hoped. The writing on it is extremely small.
|
Birthday plaque This is a bit of overkill, in that it has some things he will not care about, and is bigger than he needs. But I think he will enjoy some of the information on it. Amazing how long it has been since some of these things happened.
|
Good Idea but Flawed I was very excited about this idea, making a special birthday gift. It would have been perfect besides a black gash in the plaque front, which the receiver noticed right away! But i had no time to return it.
