A painted, cartoon-styled backglass set in a natural wood frame, with a deep navy-blue starfield background scattered with white and pale-blue five-pointed stars. At upper right the title BRITE STAR appears in large red block capitals outlined in yellow and white, above the words 2 Player in slanted white script with a swash underline. Dominating the left half is a smiling blonde woman in a pink polka-dot strapless playsuit, long pink opera gloves and a pink headscarf, seated on a red padded bench with bare legs extended. To the right, a tilted white placard with a red bulb-studded border shows three more scantily dressed women in green and yellow lingerie and fishnet stockings posed around red seats. Two white instruction cards carry red and black lettering. Along the bottom sit two coloured score windows - a pink-and-yellow one marked 1st PLAYER with a star badge, and a green one marked 2nd PLAYER - with a green PLAYERS panel between them, a curved yellow BALL IN PLAY arrow, and a row of red and green stars along the lower edge.
