Is anyone due to receive the title of honorary citizen, or is a 200-year or maybe even a 1000-year jubilee coming up? When presenting well-deserved awards to public figures or celebrating special occasions, certificates have always represented a special form of recognition.  
Hand-written, often also decorated with gold embossing, deckle-edged paper is usually used for high-class, durable certificates of honorary citizenship. Matching scroll cases, passepartouts and boxes thereby offer worthy receptacles for their safekeeping.
The traditions of a municipality, town, county or state also find a commensurate setting in chronicles. Ornamental embellishments, different types of embossment, as well as seals and the work of calligraphy masters all help to make certificates and chronicles into special souvenirs.
