Distinctive

A huge funnelled steam locomotive bursting up out of the centre on a red bridge, flanked by two black crest badges reading 1 UP and 2 UP. The title TRAMWAY sits in chunky red letters with a heavy black keyline across a cream star-strewn sky. Six smiling 1970s-dressed young people crowd the two bottom corners, split into a pair at left and a trio at right. A green city skyline with a monument, a clock tower and a suspension bridge forms a horizontal band behind the engine.

Full description

A printed backglass with a cream and pale-yellow background scattered with small five-pointed stars. Across the top runs a white swooping banner carrying a bold red-and-black outlined wordmark reading TRAMWAY, flanked by two black shield crests each holding a white numeral 1 or 2 above the letters UP. Left of the title is a cursive script company name with a small circular logo. Two large black-bordered angled score windows sit left and right below the title, each showing five plain rectangular digit panels. The centre is dominated by a great funnelled red, cream and dark-green steam locomotive angled up to the right on a red girder bridge, with a curling plume of smoke and a striped ribbon of track sweeping up behind the title. Flanking it is a composite green city skyline with towers, a domed clock tower, a stone circle monument and a suspension bridge. Groups of smiling young people in 1970s clothing fill the lower left and lower right corners. A cream band along the bottom carries lettering about the ball in play and one or two players, with a small maker credit line at the far right.
