About the Item
An authentic slice of American sports history, this slim original 1980s scoreboard was manufactured by Trans-Lux Fair-Play, a leader in athletic display technology. Bold in design and built for durability, it features vibrant red, green, and amber LED displays set against a classic blue backdrop, clearly marking scores, periods, and possession. Complete with a control console used to operate and update the scoreboard in real time during games, managing scores, game clock, possession indicators, and other game functions. Once the pulse of high-energy games in gymnasiums across the USA, it embodies the era’s blend of functional engineering and spirited competition. Whether displayed as a nostalgic statement piece or repurposed as dynamic wall art, this scoreboard brings a dose of vintage athletic charm and authentic game-day atmosphere to any space.
Located at our Los Angeles showroom.
