Their die-hard devotion to their team, that is. Eternal Image offers Major League Baseball-licensed urns ($799), caskets ($4,499, coming soon), and headstone markers ($199).Each MLB Urn is made of die-cast aluminum with a clear coat finish and sits atop a "home plate" base. The urn has a baseball display dome at the top for a favorite collectible baseball. Thirteen teams currently are available: Atlanta Braves, Baltimore Orioles, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Chicago White Sox, Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers, Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Mets, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, San Francisco Giants, and St. Louis Cardinals.
The MLB Caskets (see gallery photos) will feature the same teams as the urns. The first eight to be ready will be Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Detroit Tigers, Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies, and St. Louis Cardinals. The caskets are crafted from a proprietary composite and decorated with wood and metals. The interior fabric features the team logo and colors for the pillow and fabric trim.
The MLB Medallion Headstone Markers, available in all 30 teams, are a half-pound of solid bronze and can be fixed to headstones and monuments of all types. The markers are painted in team colors with long-lasting, all-weather paint.
