Now & Then with Harold Mintz

Harold Mintz Blog Post

A lot has changed in the exhibit industry over the past ten years. And Harold Mintz, a Classic Regional Sales Manager, has a unique perspective on those changes.


As many know, Harold took a trade show hiatus for ten years. What was common “back in the day” isn’t quite as common today, such as dedicated territories, show rooms, and modular wall systems. 

Read Harold’s thoughts about “What’s Different” in 2020 in the Trade Show Tales blog.

Our Annual State of the Company Letter

Classic Exhibits, Annual State of the Company Letter

In case you didn’t see Kevin’s 2019/2020 State of the Company letter, here’s a link to download a PDF version. Topics included the 2019 sales roller coaster, custom projects, new additions to the sales team, and changes to Classic’s Customer Service Department, including the addition of Eco-System Sustainable into the Classic Family.

And while 2019 was exciting, we expect 2020 to be even more eventful as we continue to expand our rental offerings, launch the Symphony Portable line, and work on even more interesting projects ( although building the Millennium Falcon may be hard to top ).

Shared Knowledge University Invitation | Fall 2018

August 20th, 2018 COMMENTS

Fall 2018 Shared Knowledge University

November in Portland, OR. Overcast. Rainy. Brisk. Nine games into the Portland Trail Blazers schedule. And, if you believe Kevin, the U of O Ducks football team is undefeated and headed to a national championship. Sounds like the ideal time to visit the Rose City for Shared Knowledge University. 

As always, seats are limited. Contact Jen LaBruzza (jen@classicexhibits.com) if you have questions. See below for details and click on the image to watch the official SKU video (nice job Glenna!).

Gravitee One-Step Tower with Closet | GK-5156 Disassembly Video

July 2nd, 2018 COMMENTS

Short Introduction

The Gravitee One-Step Tower in the video was built for Shared Knowledge University. It’s a GK-5156 which re-configures into a GK-5155 and GK-2010. We used the tower as a training tool for Classic Distributors to show them: 

  • How Gravitee connects and stacks without tools or loose parts
  • How SEG fabric and direct print graphics attach
  • How easily it disassembles (and by extension assembles)
  • The locking closet door
  • The overall stability of the tower
  • Finally, how the panels nest for shipping

The video shows three Classic Production Employees casually dismantling it. We increased the playback to 4X. Note:  The inline structure with flat and curved frames to the right of the tower is also Gravitee.
