Introducing Collector Hub, A New Name For A Trusted Online Community

June 1, 2010 - PRLog -- Ripon, CA, June 01, 2010 – Blackshear Online, the premier online community of Thomas Blackshear enthusiasts, is changing its name but not its first-class customer service. Collector Hub is the new name for the pre-eminent gathering place of those who appreciate the fine arts and collectibles that Blackshear is known for.  The only change is the name—customers can be confident that they are doing business with the same company they have come to respect and trust. At Collector Hub, they will find the same warm and welcoming atmosphere; the same toll-free telephone number and a large selection of Blackshear collectibles, unsurpassed by any other online community.

To enhance service and provide additional protection to its customers, Collector Hub is stepping up online security to go green with state-of-the-art encryption—Extended Validation (EV) SSL from VeriSign.

In the tradition of delivering the latest updates on new releases from Thomas Blackshear, Collector Hub rolls out the red carpet to announce the upcoming release of First Lady, Michelle Obama—a collectible figurine. Part of Thomas Blackshear’s Ebony Visions™ Collection, pre-orders for this most anticipated piece will be available online, mid to late June 2010. A striking symbol of strength, wisdom and quiet elegance, Michelle is the perfect companion to the President Barrack Obama limited edition figurine. As with all of Blackshear’s creations, this rendition is expected to capture the essence of the First Lady… her intelligence, her style and her attitude of hope.

In addition to the President Barrack Obama figurine, Collector Hub stocks Blackshear’s copper finished bust of the 44th President of the United States. Poised on a wooden pedestal this sophisticated bust is sure to impress the most discerning customer. From the Presidential Series to the child-like innocence of the Comfort and Joy ornament collection…Collector Hub is the one-stop-shop for those who appreciate the fine art and inspiring pieces of Thomas Blackshear.
