The centrepiece is a powder-blue circle carrying the chunky rounded yellow title ALPHA 2001, sitting directly beneath a wide white-bezelled black display window. A black spider on a radiating ochre web anchors the upper left corner. A grinning green-faced jester in a blue-and-gold fool's cap grins out from the lower left. The right half is a jumble of carnival-machinery props - a brass cannon, a globe, clown and jester figures - against the crimson radiating background.

A cartoon-style pinball backglass dominated by a large powder-blue circular badge at centre, outlined in white and black, carrying the two-line title ALPHA 2001 in big rounded golden-yellow block capitals with heavy black outline and white drop shadow. Directly above the badge sits a wide, low rectangular display window in a thick white bezel, its interior black and unlit. Behind everything runs a broad crimson-pink ground with radiating pale cream rays and a soft pink haze at the top. Upper left is a black spider with spread legs sitting on an ochre web whose strands radiate outwards across the pink field. Arcing above the centre is a curved line of blue-outlined lettering with an ornate yellow flourish at its left end, unreadable at this resolution. Left of centre, low down, is a grinning green-faced jester or goblin head in a blue and gold jester hat, with a wide toothy mouth. The right side is crowded with carnival and seaside-machinery imagery: small clown and jester figures, a brass cannon or telescope on a stand, a globe, and a green long-snouted cartoon character. The lower right corner shows a yellow fan or shell shape with black dot markings. Overall a flat, outlined, comic-book illustration in crimson, pink, blue, gold and green.
