Fingerprint: Bulls-eye 30, full-size numbered dartboard occupying middle third with yellow outer ring 1-20, smaller numbered ring-and-wheel reading 307 GAMES above flippers, blue-toned human illustrations in marquee side panels, yellow GP monogram stamped repeatedly, hard-contrast black ground with yellow-red-white-teal graphic blocks, sparse numeric lettering
The entire playfield is built around two bullseye targets rather than a conventional scoring grid: a full-size numbered dartboard occupying the middle third, and a smaller numbered ring-and-wheel assembly reading 307 GAMES just above the flippers. Lettering is sparse and mostly numeric, with the numbered 1-20 dartboard ring being the single largest text feature. Two mirrored blue-toned human illustrations occupy the upper left and upper right inside curved, marquee-like side panels. A yellow GP monogram is stamped repeatedly at the top left, on both pop-bumper caps, on a small centre box, and again on the lower right of the deck. The overall palette is a hard-contrast black ground with saturated yellow, red, white and teal-blue graphic blocks, and the lower apron is a flat black deck carrying two white printed instruction cards.
Setting
- Flat matte-black playfield ground with no scenery or horizon; all imagery is graphic iconography and framed illustrations floating on the black, contained by the wood-rail cabinet sides, a chrome ball-guide rail on the right, and a brushed aluminium apron at the bottom.

- A printed gold jug/trophy on a stand on the right side playfield

- A printed starburst on a small square panel near lower centre
- The gp monogram stamped top left, on both pop-bumper caps, on a centre box, and lower right
- Red circular arrowed inserts reading 2x and 3x
- Concentric scoring rings used as the main iconography
Notable shapes
- A full-size printed dartboard ring numbered 1-20; a smaller concentric numbered wheel reading 307 games; a central thrown again lane; a red plastic ramp guide arcing across the top; a chrome ball-guide rail along the right edge; two curved yellow-trimmed figure panels flanking the upper playfield

|---|---|
| Other | A man in a blue shirt, drawn in flat blue and white tones inside a curved yellow-trimmed side panel; he faces inward, one arm raised above his head, the other hand down at his side, short dark hair, standing against a solid blue field. |
| Other | A woman in a blue dress, mirrored to the left figure, inside a matching curved yellow-trimmed panel; long light hair, one arm raised near her head, body angled inward toward the centre of the playfield against a solid blue field. |
| Other | A full-size printed dartboard, not a figure: yellow ring numbered 1-20 in black, alternating red and black pie wedges, a small white segment band, and a dark greenish-brown bullseye disc printed 50. |
| Other | A printed target below the dartboard: white outer band, a ring of dark grey circles each printed with a black numeral 1 through 9, and a yellow centre disc reading 307 games around a red ball graphic labelled ball. |
| Other | A small dark sphere printed inside the dartboard bullseye, flanked above by two white pop-bumper caps carrying the yellow gp monogram and by red plastic guides. |
A black-background playfield dominated by a large central dartboard motif: a yellow outer ring numbered 1 through 20 in black, red and black alternating pie wedges, a greenish bullseye disc reading 50, and a ring of dark circular insets. Below it sits a second, smaller concentric wheel with a white outer band, black numbered 1-9 circles, and a yellow centre reading 307 GAMES around a red ball. Two bright yellow rubber flippers angle inwards beneath this wheel, flanked by red-and-white striped rails. The upper playfield carries two white pop-bumper caps printed with a yellow monogram, red plastic ramp guides lit by warm bulbs, and two mirrored illustrated human figures in blue on the upper corners. Yellow inlanes, red slingshots, an EXTRA BALL / SPECIAL pair of round inserts, and a THROWN AGAIN lane complete the layout. Two white instruction cards with blue and black text sit on the lower deck beside AMUSEMENT ONLY lettering.

A painted backglass with a black background scattered with white four-pointed sparkle stars. Across the top, a huge red cursive title with a thick light-blue drop shadow. Behind the figures is a large circular dartboard-like target: red and blue pie wedges divided by white and pale-blue radiating lines. Two figures stand centre: a dark-haired man in a bright blue buttoned jacket with two chest pockets and beige trousers, holding a small chrome sphere up in his raised right hand and gripping a dart with a red feathered flight in his left; behind and right of him stands a woman with shoulder-length wavy auburn hair in a red blouse, hand on her hip. A dart with red flights and a silver barrel crosses the lower centre over a blue disc. Four rectangular score windows with red surrounds sit at the four corners, marked with red numerals 1, 2, 3, 4. A white 'GP' monogram box sits mid-right, and a yellow wooden frame borders the whole piece.
