Fingerprint: Flock of brown-orange ducks wheeling across pale cream-blue sky in upper half, rural landscape with red barn and farm buildings with dark roofs, white fencing and flat green fields below, large woman's head and shoulders filling bottom-left corner wearing wide-brimmed scarlet hat and red garment with cheerful smile, flowing red lower-case script title on cream cloud panel, small yellow rectangular windows beneath

Distinctive

The single most memorable feature is the flock of brown ducks wheeling across the pale sky above a bright red-and-green farm scene. Second, the large smiling woman's face in a big red hat that fills the bottom-left corner, cropped by the frame. Third, the flowing red lower-case script title on a cream cloud panel at mid-height, with a row of small yellow windows immediately beneath it.

Full description

Painted pinball backglass with a busy farm-and-pond scene in a flat, saturated mid-century cartoon style. A flock of a dozen or more brown-orange ducks flies across a pale cream-and-pale-blue sky in the upper half, wings spread, scattered at varied angles from the top edge down to the horizon. Below them a rural landscape runs horizontally across the glass: a red barn and red farm buildings with dark roofs, white fencing, and flat green fields meeting a lighter green bank. On the right edge a red-orange structure with a curved roof sits beside more fencing. In the lower left corner a large woman's head and shoulders dominate: she has dark hair, a wide-brimmed scarlet hat, a cheerful open smile, and a bright red garment. Across the centre, set over a cream cloud-shaped panel, the title is lettered in flowing red lower-case script with a pale outline. Directly beneath the title sit small yellow rectangular windows. Dominant colours are red, green, cream and yellow.
