I have purchased online at http://www.klockit.com/ if I remember correctly.
Not too expensive if I recall. "Things Remembered" at your local mall if
they are still arround.

I have used Jewlery stores for engraved plates but have found that they do
not make a deep enough engraving. Additionally, many trophy stores use
brass coated aluminum sheet material. Best bet is to make the plate
yourself and take it to an engraver for the lettering.

I've had a couple made at a local trophy shop. Around $5-6 including
the engraving. Avoid the mall guys such as "Things Remembered" etc
... when I priced them they were 4x the cost and the plates were thin
plated steel.

Find an industrial electrical distributor, especially the Allen-Bradley
motor control distributor and ask them who they use to have special
nameplates engraved.

Probably be some guy who has a side business in his garage.

Probably less than $5 for what you need.

woodcraft used to do them - mighty proud of them, however (read that
'expensive')

I'm doing a project for my daughter's 1st birthday and would like to include
a small (approx. 1"X3"), personalized, engraved brass plate. Can anybody
recommend a good sight to order it from? Thank you in advance for your
assistance.

Try a local trophy shop or craft store first :)
