Fridge Magnet Picture Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)
SKU: M0953
This magnet pictures Thomas More (1478-1535), English lawyer, scholar, author, knight, statesman and Catholic saint. He was executed for treason after refusing to honor Parliament over the Pope, for which he was canonized in 1935 by Pope Pius XI. Traditional Catholics celebrate his feast day on July 6, the day of his martyrdom.
More's most controversial work, the novel Utopia, was written in 1516. In it he touted religious tolerance, maybe not reckoning that tolerance would soon be tested by the likes of Martin Luther with his 95 Theses. Within a decade, More's religious tolerance had deteriorated sufficiently that he had Lutherans burned at the stake. Doesn't seem very saint like. When it was More's turn to be executed, Henry VIII treated him with a more humane beheading.
Prior to becoming Henry VIII's counselor, More was an undersheriff in London. In Henry's service, More was knighted, made undertreasurer, Speaker of the House of Commons and eventually Lord Chancellor.
Q. Can you personalize or make custom magnets? Happy to, make dozens every week. Simple text changes to stock magnets are free, including eliminating all text. Just add instructions to your payment or email me after payment.
Sorry, I do not sell magnets of copyrighted images unless you are the copyright holder.
Q. How strong is the magnetism? Will it stick to my ....? My magnets will hold a couple sheets of lightweight paper or an appointment card but are apt to fail at holding Johnny's finger-painted masterpiece slathered with a pint of tempera paint, or a stack of coupons. The magnet covers the entire back, which means it's unlikely to be brushed to the floor by a youngster cart wheeling through the kitchen.
Q. Any special offers? Every order ships with at least 1 free magnet, sometimes made exclusively for you, always selected with an eye to your particular interests.
Q. Are magnets three dimensional or die cut? Nope. They are hand crafted rectangular pictures printed on flat, flexible 30ml magnetic vinyl with a protective satin-finish top coating and hand finished edges.
The magnets are roughly twice the thickness & strength of magnetic material found at office supply stores. They are suitable for interior use.
In other languages that's: El imán es una imagen plana. L'aimant est une image plate. Der Magnet ist ein flaches Bild. Il magnete è un'immagine piatta. De magneet is een vlakke afbeelding.
Q. Where are the magnets made and who makes them? They're made in Elkhart, Indiana U.S.A. by Yours Truly. I'm a 1-lady band so when you buy from me, you deal only with me.

email so I'll know to watch for an incoming parcel.

Q. What about durability? Will they damage my refrigerator?
They are kind to your refrigerator; no metal corners to scratch or rust, no plastic sleeves to harbor soil or moisture. The top layer is fused to the magnetic base and does not delaminate. To clean, wipe with a damp cloth. Do not soak, use abrasives or apply cleaning products containing bleach or solvents. I've run them through the dishwasher without disaster, but they'll last longer if you keep them out of puddles, away from puppy teeth, and remember they're not suitable for exterior use.
