Fingerprint: CROCKET title in curving red script, giant disembodied woman's head lower right corner with striped blue-white beehive hairstyle white cheek curl, brunette in blue skirt leaning on long red-handled broom lower left, smaller red-dressed girl centre covering mouth, giant white ball spraying red star shapes on stalks up right side, flat mid-century cartoon style
The most memorable element is the enormous disembodied woman's head at the lower right corner, with a huge striped blue-and-white beehive hairstyle and a white curl on her cheek, looking upward. Second is the curving red script title whose dots and terminals are small red apples, set across a stone wall. Third, a brunette in a blue skirt leans on a long red-handled broom in the lower left while a smaller red-dressed girl in the centre covers her mouth, and a giant white ball sprays red star shapes on thin stalks up the right side.

A portrait-format backglass in a white frame, sky blue at the top fading into a pale green field. A white stone wall crosses the upper third, with a broadleaf tree at upper left rising from a small blue pond. At upper right a white score window with black outline holds six reel digits, 5 7 0 9 0 0. Over the wall sits the title in curving red script outlined in black, with apple shapes for dots. The field carries red five-pointed stars on thin stems rising from a white ball, and three black horseshoe bumpers. Four figures: a giant woman's head at lower right with striped blue, white and grey bouffant hair, green eyes, red lips and a white cheek curl; a brunette at lower left in a blue skirt and polka-dot blouse, chin on hand, holding a long red-handled broom diagonally; a small girl at centre in a red dress, one hand to her mouth; and a tiny girl in black at mid-left. Flat mid-century cartoon style with bold outlines.
