One of the great display pieces, this 1940s vintage for basketball or otherwise is from an unknown locale so we can only fantasize what these eyes have seen. Produced by the legendary company Naden of Webster City, Iowa, this is the ultimate symbol of the bygone game. One of their first models, the look is purely classic and would be the perfect addition to your trophy room, a decorator's dream. It is not running as the electronics have been removed but the look is the key here unless you are going to be playing a serious game of five on five. There is some replacement of the metal sides but it is otherwise original. The measurements are overall 74" across x 38" high x 8" thick. This is an object that stirs untold imagery of a bygone era.
