Basketball Museum Pieces ..?
Just received this pair of originals 24 seconds clock shots (circa 1954)
Curious to know if there are many around ?
I found one in Syracuse (a monument in the street) and one at the Daniel Biasone Memorial ay LeMoyne College.(see the video).

The shot clock was first introduced in 1954 as an idea of the Syracuse Nationals head coach to keep NBA teams from stalling. It is such an unusual piece of memorabilia as well as being a large piece that I don't think there would be many out there in collections.

Actually no matter how awesome and unique the shot clock is, a Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi can only enhances it's historical significance. (It just seemed so out of place)
