LED Old School

Back in the early Late Nineties, what I think of as the Internet’s Big Hair period, an earlier incarnation of the Chrome Cow made use of a countdown composed of the titular old school red LED numerals.

I happened across these the other day as I was digging around for something else on an old drive, and was immediately charmed by their naivety, their insouciance.

So I dusted them off and cleaned them up, for back in the day bandwidth was delivered twice a week, dropped off by the milkman as he set new bottles of fresh, wholesome dairy products on the front porch, and as a result, they had be jpeged most savagely.

You can download them here , in pristine PNG format, with the PSD file from which you can construct other characters, should you feel the need, or tweak the hue to create the exotic Green LED.

Please follow all appropriate safeguards when working around high concentrations of kitsch.
