We love this large figural vintage basketball trophy from 1929. The basketball has all the detail of a real vintage basketball, complete with ribs and lacing details. Even more elaborate is the base that supports the basketball. Scrolled supports with ornate trimmed Laurel wreath and swag details add to the eye-catching appearance of this trophy. The antique basketball trophy rest on a mottled brown Bakelite circular plinth base.
