Fingerprint: BUTCH — diagonal staircase of chunky orange-yellow title letters down right side on crimson background, ginger-bearded man at centre with boot aloft and green drink, flanked by rearing white horses, red-haired woman's face fills bottom-right corner, pale sailing ship and green reptile coil occupy bottom left, circular numbered dial (50-90-10)
The single most memorable element is the giant diagonal staircase of chunky orange-and-yellow title letters running down the right-hand side of an otherwise crimson backglass. Second is the ginger-bearded man at centre with one arm thrown up, holding a pale boot aloft and a green drink in his other hand, flanked by two rearing white horses. Third, a huge red-haired woman's face fills the bottom-right corner while a pale sailing ship and a green reptile coil occupy the bottom left, giving the piece an odd nautical-frontier collage. Fourth, the circular numbered dial (50 60 70 80 90 10) on the right wall. Fifth, the FREE PLAYS / EXTRA BALLS panel at top left with empty black windows beneath it.

Rectangular pinball backglass with a deep red, brick-red and maroon background divided into panels. Across the upper right a staircase of large orange-and-yellow outlined capital letters descends diagonally, reading ...T T C H with more letters continuing down the right edge. Top left holds a white rounded panel reading FREE PLAYS and EXTRA BALLS, each above a black rectangular window, and two long black rectangular windows sit at upper left and mid left. The centre figure is a stocky, ginger-bearded man in a pale blue shirt and dark trousers, right arm raised brandishing a pale boot-shaped object, left hand holding a small green glass. To his left stands a small figure in a teal coat and helmet. Two white horses with dark-clothed riders rear across the red upper field. A round dark-red dial on the right carries white numerals 50 60 70 80 90 10 in a ring. Lower left shows pale cream ship sails over an ochre plain with a palm tree and a large green reptile-like coil. Lower right is dominated by a large red-haired woman's face in three-quarter view. The whole thing is airbrushed, glossy and reflective.
