Brig. Gen. James S. Robinson 002 (U.S. Civil War) Refrigerator Magnet - Design Overview

This refrigerator magnet showcases a meticulously preserved image, cataloged as "002," of Brigadier General James S. Robinson, a Union officer who served with distinction during the American Civil War. The design is a faithful reproduction of a historical photograph, offering a glimpse into a critical era of American history.

Visual Representation

The central design element is the portrait of Brig. Gen. Robinson. The photograph, likely a period piece, presents a formal image of the officer. Details such as his uniform, rank insignia, and facial expression are clearly visible, allowing for a direct connection to the historical figure and his role in the war. The monochromatic tones, characteristic of photography from the Civil War era, contribute to the design's authenticity and historical feel.

Meaning and Symbolism

The image of Brig. Gen. Robinson symbolizes leadership, service, and sacrifice during the American Civil War. The presence of his rank insignia and uniform conveys the gravitas of his position and his commitment to the Union cause. The inclusion of the "002" catalog designation subtly acknowledges the importance of archival preservation and the ongoing effort to remember and understand the past. The magnet design serves as a small, tangible reminder of a pivotal figure in American history and the enduring legacy of the Civil War.

Die-cut refrigerator magnets made from flexible vinyl with a matte surface and a solid black magnetic backing. Available in five sizes, they stick strongly to metal while staying easy to move and reposition.

These magnets feel substantial but bend slightly when needed — a balance that helps them conform to smooth metal without cracking. The matte finish softens reflections under kitchen lighting so colors read clearly without glare. Because each piece is cut to the artwork’s outline, the result looks neat and thoughtfully finished.

The black backing delivers consistent contrast on shiny surfaces, and printing uses modern, low-impact inks that keep tones lively through everyday handling. They are built to be handled, moved, and displayed repeatedly without losing form or adhesion.

  • Material: flexible vinyl with a black magnetic backing for reliable holding power.
  • Finish: matte coating that reduces glare and preserves color depth.
  • Printing: full-color, eco-conscious inks for crisp details and vibrant hues.
  • Durability: designed for frequent use on smooth metal surfaces; resists peeling and warping.
  • Precision: die-cut edges follow the artwork; extremely fine islands or slivers may blend during cutting.

Perfect for refrigerator doors, magnetic whiteboards, steel lockers, or metal filing cabinets. They’re also handy for displays at events or temporary signage where you want a neat, movable solution.

  1. Prep: remove dust and grease with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth, then allow the surface to dry completely.
  2. Place: set the magnet flat, press from the center outward to make full contact and remove any trapped air.
  3. Reposition: lift gently and move if needed — avoid folding or pinching along the same tight crease repeatedly.

Heads-up: very intricate artwork can look slightly different after die-cutting; tiny, closely spaced pieces may join together in production.

To keep magnets looking their best, dust them off with a soft microfiber cloth. For smudges, use a barely damp cloth and blot dry immediately — don’t soak the magnet or use abrasive scrubs.

Avoid harsh chemicals and scouring pads, which can dull the matte surface or damage the backing. With simple, gentle care your magnets will stay crisp and retain their hold for a long time.

Sizes are listed by the magnet’s longest side. For example, a 3″ magnet is three inches across its largest edge. This gives a consistent reference when choosing the right fit for your space.

The die-cut follows your artwork for a close-fitting border; slight variation is normal with very detailed silhouettes, but each piece is finished to look tidy and professional.
