- Efforts in digital billboard market bearing fruit -
NORWALK, CT, January, 2008 - Trans-Lux Corporation (AMEX: TLX) today announced another sale of a standalone, large-scale, full color, outdoor LED digital billboard, the Company's third in three months. The LED digital billboard features the company's new Color CaptiVue technology and will be installed in the southern U.S. during the second quarter. Trans-Lux, a world leader in electronic displays, announced its first two digital billboard sales in January. The first was installed in January 2007 at a high-traffic intersection in Louisiana. The second installed in March on a Sears property in Canada to generate ad revenue and promote retail merchandise and services.

"We believe Trans-Lux is properly positioned and on-schedule to get its share of this new and lucrative market, that the Outdoor Advertising Association of America identified as the second fastest growing advertising medium after the Internet."
Trans-Lux's new digital billboard installations feature their full-color CaptiVue display technology and ProLine controller system. CaptiVue is an advanced electronic display system with modular construction, superior LED clarity and brightness, wide viewing angles and a palette of 16.7 million colors.
