Our deep involvement in the sporting memorabilia industry dates back to 2003, earning us a highly esteemed reputation and a profound understanding of all aspects of sports memorabilia.
Our journey began with a genuine passion for the sport of "Horse Racing," leading to the inception of "Champions of The Turf." This venture specialized in the design and production of horse racing memorabilia, catering to a diverse clientele that included owners, trainers, jockeys, race clubs, race track photographers, and devoted race enthusiasts.
Notably, "Champions of The Turf" had the privilege of managing and supplying memorabilia collections for legendary equine champions such as Miss Andretti, Weekend Hussler, and Takeover Target. Furthermore, we took pride in creating an Official VRC range dedicated to the three-time Melbourne Cup Winner, Makybe Diva. Our close collaborations extended to working with many accomplished jockeys and race stables, including the management of exclusive memorabilia lines for champion Group 1 jockeys Chris Munce and Danny Beasley. Additionally, we partnered closely with the Australian Turf Club (ATC) to develop their corporate memorabilia offerings.
In parallel, we founded "Ultimate Sports Memorabilia," a venture that encompassed a wide variety of officially licensed and endorsed sports memorabilia and collectibles. By collaborating hand in hand with the governing bodies of various sports, "Ultimate Sports Memorabilia" rapidly ascended to a leadership position in the industry.
Our impressive roster included:
Official Australian Brands: AFL, NRL, QRL, Cricket Australia, Wallabies, All Blacks, The Bradman Museum, International Cricket Council, Hyundai A-League, Winx, Black Caviar, Victorian Race Club, V8 Supercars, Australian War Memorial, Australian Olympic Committee & Football Federation of Australia.
Official International Brands: Fanatics, Upper Deck, Panini, National Basketball Association (NBA), Major League Baseball (MLB), National Football League (NFL), National Hockey League (NHL), Icons UK.
A significant milestone in our journey was securing an exclusive contract with IAG Insurance Group, Australia's largest Insurance Group, representing NRMA, SGIO, SGIC, CGU, Swann Insurance, West Farmers, and Coles. This encompassed a vast corporate portfolio where we provided valuations and replacements for all insurance claims processed within the Memorabilia sector of IAG.
In January 2020, "Ultimate Sports Memorabilia" underwent a complete acquisition by one of Australia's prominent Sports Memorabilia licensee companies.
