The whole backglass is a giant fan of brightly coloured numbered scoring panels radiating from a small square cut-out at the exact centre, with an enormous white-outlined 7-8 on orange dominating the upper left. A small row of identical cartoon men in blue coats and caps leaning over a green ledge runs above the bottom numbered strip 00 to 90, like spectators at a race. The mirrored or bare rectangular panel in the lower centre is completely empty and reflects nothing, framed by pink-red theatrical curtains and a yellow tasselled valance.

A tall, portrait-format backglass set in a light honey-brown wooden frame, its painted face arranged as a huge numbered score card. The upper half is a fan of coloured quadrilateral panels radiating round a small square opening at the centre: a big orange panel carries a huge white-outlined 7 and 8, flanked by a yellow 5 and 6 on cream and a green 1 2 3 4 along the bottom, while the right-hand side stacks 800 and 900 (white on red), 500 600 700 (red/white on red) and 100 200 300 400 in red, white and yellow on green, with magenta and pink blank panels in between. Across the top a red-orange band reads MILLIONS at left and THOUSANDS at right in blue-outlined capitals. Mid-height a sky-blue band with white clouds and a curling black ribbon reads Williams in red cursive script, a large yellow 3-D with red inline, and Mfg. Co. in red script. Below hangs a yellow scalloped theatre valance with tassels and crimson side curtains around a large blank mirrored/grey rectangular panel. Along the bottom a strip of small cartoon men in blue coats and caps lean over a green ledge above a row of numbered squares 00 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90, flanked by THOUSANDS panels, over a checkerboard of red, yellow, blue, green and orange squares.
