Here is a recent press release about our button production:

Lenticular campaign buttons are making a comeback. Lenticular buttons use a process in which two different images are printed on the button and then alternate from view when tilted.

This recent resurgence in popularity is due to the fact that it is no longer necessary to purchase these in mass quantities thanks to The Magic Picture Company.  Chris Skeeles, director of magicpicturecompany.com says his clients are attracted by the fact that there is no  minimum on custom orders. The minimum quantity requirements of other companies are in the thousands of pieces.

Almost considered nostalgic, lenticular buttons have been around a long time. Sometimes called flashers, flickers or blinkers, these eye catching pinbacks saw their political peak in the 60’s, campaigning for the likes of Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon.

The Magic Picture Company  also serves local school districts, sports booster clubs, and charities with customized fund-raising lenticular buttons. We have been providing custom lenticular imaging services since 2003.

A gift for our Baseball Coaches

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

As a father of two children who are both active in sports I appreciate the time and effort that the coaches of their little league teams donate each year. It is a commitment that should not go unrecognized!

For years we struggled to find a nice, meaningful gift that would reflect our gratitude. That’s when we came up with the idea of a Magic Picture featuring the coach and the team! We used the traditional team photo that is taken each year, and combined it with a picture of them actually coaching!

It was simple and really fun. For each game the coaches gather the kids into a big circle and do a “1-2-3 Lets Go!” cheer. Knowing this was the routine it was easy for me to be in the right place for the shot.  Look at the resulting Magic Picture one way to see the team, look the other way and see the hurrah!

The reaction was great. The coaches loved it and showed it around to everyone at the ball field. Not only was it a great gift, we don’t need to think very hard every year as to how to show our appreciation, its just Magic!
