Abstract

An achievement award including a novel, substantially transparent, injection molded acrylic plaque and a supporting base therefor. The display plaque is provided with ornamental designs comprising either or both a fossil-like, three-dimensional decorative design or image which appears to be embedded in the central body portion of the plaque and an upstanding ornamental design which extends outwardly from the front face 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 plaque with the fossil-like design 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.
