The most memorable element is the huge white three-dimensional BE-BOP logo with a heavy black shadow, dwarfing a tiny red script 'Exhibits' tucked to its left. Second, three long diagonal crimson value ribbons (100,000 to 900,000) slash across the left half against a blue sky. Third, the man in the blue jacket at bottom right holding up both index fingers beside a red convertible, with a crowd of dancing couples on a green lawn behind him. Fourth, a striking woman in a black top hat, black-and-white striped long-sleeve top and red shorts, standing full-length at the left edge pointing upward.

Framed painted backglass in a light honey-coloured wood frame, art in a flat mid-century cartoon/comic style with bold black outlines and flat saturated colour. Background is a bright cerulean-blue sky with large puffy white clouds. Across the top the small red script word 'Exhibits' sits left of an enormous white block-letter title 'BE-BOP' with heavy black drop shadow and a red accent. Down the left and centre run three diagonal crimson-orange ribbons of scoring values in white and yellow numerals (100,000 / 200,000 / 300,000, then 400,000 / 500,000 / 600,000, then 700,000 / 800,000 / 900,000), with smaller tilted coloured value tags scattered around them. Upper right is an angled navy panel of large multi-coloured digits 1 2 3 4 over 5 6 7 8 in yellow, orange, red and blue with 'MILLIONS' beneath. A tall woman in a black top hat and striped top stands at the left with one arm raised. A big blonde woman's head in red shoulders fills the lower left, and a young man in a blue jacket raises both index fingers at lower right beside a red car, with a park dance scene of suited couples behind.
