Crescendo
Gottlieb, 1970The thing that sits in front of the 'ball in play' bulbs on the apron. My Crescendo is missing it, I can just look at the light bulbs, how boring. What's the name of that card or THING that is supposed to be there so I can try and hunt one down? 
Do you mean these?

Hard to find on the website but saw them the other day!
gtb-a9995.jpgThe light dividers are unobtainium. You'll need to find one from a parts game, or schlock one out of cardboard until you can find one.
Quoted from Rat_Tomago:Steve should consider reproing the deviders
Depending on cost, I think the 3D printing idea is a good one.
someone's gotta be able to model and print it, just need the specs. It's not like it's complicated, I just have no idea how they attach or mount... hell, I can probably make something myself out of poster-board and elmers' glue that's sufficient for the light-blocker part LOL. 
I have access to a small 3D printer which should be able to handle this.
I will see if a buddy of mine will model it.
Will probably cost me a couple lunches.
But I'm not sure if we have material to print black.
I'll have to investigate

FYI, Silver spray paint blocks light better than black. So, as was suggested, it could be printed out of any durable material (needs to withstand the heat of the game over lamp unless you go LED) and then painted. Silver to block the light, followed by black to make it look original. But then, who is even going to see it once mounted.
Frax...Just ask Nicolas and Shawn to 3D print one for you. They have the tools and they have the part right there on Nicolas's 1967 Gottlieb Surfside. After they 3D print it then you can do like others have said paint it black or matte grey etc. Retro LEDs look better in those 6 bulbs than 44 /47 bulbs.
