Cubs casket aproved by MLB.


FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., Apr 09, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Eternal Image, Inc.
(OTC:ETIM.PK), a public company engaged in the design, manufacturing and
marketing of brand image caskets and urns, today announced that Major League
Baseball(TM) has approved the first design in the upcoming MLB(TM) casket line.

"This approval paves the way for us to move forward and create the designs for
the other seven caskets to be included in the first group that will be produced
this summer," said Clint Mytych, CEO of Eternal Image.

The approved design features the Chicago Cubs. The club will be one of the first
eight teams featured in the casket line, which will feature all 30 major league
teams by the close of 2008.

The caskets will be crafted from EI's proprietary composite and decorated with
various woods and metals. Each casket will be instantly recognizable for the
team after which it is designed. The supple interior fabric will feature the
team logo and colors for the pillow and fabric trim.

Caskets Follow Successful Urn Line Launch

The casket line will correspond to the just-launched MLB(TM) urn line. That line
features eight MLB(TM) teams (Yankees, Red Sox, Cardinals, Braves, Cubs, Tigers,
Phillies and Dodgers) and has been receiving a great deal of attention from
funeral homes and consumers. The entire first production run sold-out through
pre-orders before the product had even arrived in the US. The company has
submitted a production request for a second order - double the size of the
first.

"The positive reaction to the MLB(TM) urns from funeral homes and consumers
really validates that consumers want choice when planning funerals, and the
MLB(TM) caskets will be one more important option they can consider when making
funerary product selections," said Mytych. "We expect the first caskets to be
available for shipping early this fall."

Urns and caskets featuring the balance of 22 Major League Baseball(TM) teams
will launch in late 2007 and through 2008.

Check out what was posted on Eternal Image's website today.  Sure sounds fishy but you may be able to make some hype money off of this one.

QuoteJune 28th,2007

To Eternal Image Shareholders

This bulletin is to call attention to a very special news announcement scheduled for Friday, June 29, 2007.  Normally a bulletin such as this would not be posted simply to preview a news release; however Management wants to make sure as many shareholders as possible keep watch for Friday's news.

Management believes shareholders everywhere will be pleased with the announcement, which outlines a partnership that has immeasurably strengthened the impact of Eternal Image on the funeral industry, and propels the Company into a phase of growth not originally expected this soon.

Thank you all for your continued investment support

Best Regards ,

Eternal Image plans to apply to trade on OTC Bulletin Board
By Sheena Harrison

3:01 am, August 20, 2007


Farmington Hills-based funeral-products-maker Eternal Image Inc. (OTC: ETIM.PK) plans to file in the next six weeks to trade up to the OTC Bulletin Board stock exchange, CEO Clint Mytych said.

Eternal Image makes caskets and urns that use licensed images from Major League Baseball teams, the Vatican Library, the American Kennel Club and other groups and companies. The company's stock currently trades on the Pink Sheets, a book of small stocks that don't trade on exchanges.

Mytych said moving to the bulletin board would help boost Eternal Image's clout with investors and move the company closer to one day trading on the Nasdaq stock exchange.

"It gives us credibility in the investment community because we're a fully reporting company," Mytych said.

Earlier this month, Eternal Image concluded an audit of its financial statements from 2004 to 2006 in anticipation of moving to the bulletin board.

Mytych said the company was required to audit its past two fiscal years to file for the bulletin board. But the company audited three years of statements in hopes that going "above and beyond" the requirements would expedite the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's decision process.

For the first quarter ended March 31, Eternal Image reported a net loss of $535,956 on revenue of $165,530. The company reported a net loss of $107,481 in the first quarter of 2006 but did not report revenue for that period because the company — founded in 2002 — didn't start selling products until the fourth quarter of 2006.

As of March 31, Eternal Image reported total assets of $965,169 and total liabilities of $664,989.

This product line, just like Sparky Anderson himself, reaches out to dedicated, life-long baseball fans and provides them with something unique to their team and love of the sport."

The meet-and-greet with Sparky Anderson will take place on Tuesday, October 9 from 1:00-3:00 pm in the Eternal Image trade show booth at the NFDA Expo in Las Vegas.

Catholics dying for Vatican Library endorsed coffins


The Vatican Library has endorsed its own line of burial caskets and urns for sale through a US company called Eternal Image.

In late 2004, the Vatican started negotiations with the company to incorporate images from its collection on the company's urns.

The first Vatican-licensed caskets will be available later this year.

One urn that stands 50 centimetres tall, capped with a cross, is said to dwarf standard urns.

The Library will earn a commission from sales.

With endorsements from Major League Baseball and the Vatican, business is booming for funeral products company
Lawn Griffiths, Tribune
Dearly departed Diamondbacks fans will soon be able to have their cremated remains put into an urn that is "hand-designed using die-cast aluminum with proprietary clear coat finish" sitting atop a home plate-shaped base outlined in black.

A real baseball — provided with the urn or the fan's prized autographed baseball — will rest on the top. The D-Backs logo will boldly accent the urn.

Or they can be buried in Major League Baseball-sanctioned caskets, with exterior woods like those of baseball bats, and a Diamondbacks logo on the inside lid and on the pillow. In the near future, fans of any of the 30 major league teams can go out of this world sporting team colors and logos. (www.eternalimage.net). So far 12 team styles are available.

Meanwhile, Catholics may order from the official Vatican Library Collection of caskets or have ashes in elegant urns sporting the Collection seal.

"My company seeks to provide people with a truly fitting way to remember their loved ones," said Clint Mytych, president of Eternal Image, based in Farmington Hills, Mich. "We feel that up until we came around, most urns and caskets were pretty generic and plain."

Founded in 2002, the company embarked on developing Catholic funeral products, including artfully striking urns. One urn that stands 18 1/2 inches tall, capped with a cross, dwarfs standard urns.

Then came late 2004, when Eternal Image was contacted by the Vatican. Mytych said representatives of the Vatican Library Collection liked what they had seen in the Eternal Image product line. By spring 2005, the company gained a Vatican license for worldwide distribution of its goods. They say it's the first time the Vatican Library has endorsed funeral products. The library earns proceeds from the company's sales.

"We consider ourselves very fortunate to have a license like that," Mytych said.
The Roman Catholic Church ended its objections to cremation in 1963. Though it still does not recommend it, the church allows it as an option to the faithful. More than 40 years later, the Catholic cemeteries in Chicago, for example, report that 12 percent of families choose cremation, and it is increasing about 1 percent each year. Mytych said for the general American population, about one in three bodies is cremated.

The first Vatican-licensed caskets will be available later this year.

Besides gaining marketing licenses from Major League Baseball and the Vatican, the company has one with Precious Moments, which designed five original pieces for Eternal Image — figurines not available in its regular product line. Other companies are being pursued for product themes. The company has licenses from American Kennel Club and Cat Fanciers Association to produce urns for the ashes of dogs and cats.

"What we have done is allow people to remember their loved one in a way that they lived their lives. ... We want people to celebrate the life of someone and not focus on the death," Mytych said.

Products are made in Asia and assembled in the U.S. Those intended to hold human remains are sold only through funeral homes. Sales for the first half of 2007 have doubled from the previous year, said Nick Propravsky, vice president for sales and marketing. "It's hard to keep stock in warehouses," he said. "Everything we make tends to sell as fast as we can make them."

In July, the company opened European operations.

I loved the gameplan and wanted to make sure they were legit and had real products before I bought in so I ordered the Dog Urn last week,  The UPS driver brung it by today and it appears to be very good quality to say the least. 

So they are now doing business, a real business.. selling and delivering quality products.  a company with a novel idea, selling products is worth something in my book.

Turned a quick profit and sold some of my Lsgp.ob today at .52 so I could get some ETIM.PK

so I bought 500,000 shares of ETIM.PK @ .0042  couldn't let myself sink more than $2,000 into a pink.. ok well I have $2,100 into it since its nice to have an even half a million shares of something..

Lets see how it does
