Description

Celebrate the storied heritage of Louisville basketball with this set of three vintage wooden championship plaques, each rendered in bold school colors and classic ’70s–’80s graphics. Two rectangular plaques honor the Cardinals’ National Champions runs in 1979–80 (in a blazing red background) and 1985–86 (against a rich black field), complete with the full tournament brackets, Metro/Midwest regional results, and final scores etched below the central “No. 1” medallion. Topping off the trio is a shield-shaped plaque proclaiming “Louisville National Champs 1980 & 1986,” featuring Cardinal Bird in mid-flight beside a 3D hoop-and-net emblem—all framed in a striking red border.

Each piece is crafted from solid wood, giving it a satisfying heft and a warm, retro patina. The paint shows light surface wear consistent with proud display in a fan cave or dorm room, but the graphics remain crisp and vibrant. Ready to hang via attached hardware (or lean artfully on a mantel), this lot is a slam-dunk décor package for die-hard Cards fans, collectors of sports memorabilia, or anyone who loves a touch of nostalgia and a whole lot of school spirit.
