Distinctive

A shirtless grinning boxer with red-and-white gloves filling the centre, framed by a jagged yellow starburst against a teal-green background. Above him a magenta ribbon banner reads 'Million' in white cursive, while a red curved banner carries 'Chicago Coins' and the huge yellow-serif title 'Golden Gloves'. A second man in a cream sweater and green trousers stands small in the background beside boxing ring ropes. A ladder of coloured value panels (300 000 down to 10 000) runs down the right edge, and a red-and-cream numbered arc fills the top-right corner.

Full description

Painted, hand-illustrated backglass in a limited palette of teal-green, magenta-purple, mustard yellow, red and cream, bordered by a varnished orange-brown wooden frame. Across the very top runs a magenta-purple ribbon banner carrying the word 'Million' in large white cursive script with a dark drop shadow, decorated along its left length with a row of small coloured dots. The centre-left is dominated by a red curved banner reading 'Chicago Coins' in white script above the main title 'Golden Gloves' in huge slanted yellow-serif capitals with a dark brown outline. Below and left of the title, at the far left edge, hang two pairs of boxing gloves in tan and red leather. The centre figure is a shirtless, tanned young boxer with short curly dark hair, bare chest, maroon trunks, and red-and-white boxing gloves — his left glove is thrust up near his chin, his right arm bent low, and he grins directly at the viewer. Behind his shoulder stands a second man in a cream sweater and green trousers, head tilted, with a gym scene of ring ropes and a distant small figure at the right. A jagged yellow starburst halo surrounds the boxer. Score values are printed in coloured rectangles: a top row of 800 000, 700 000, 600,000 and 500 000, diagonal panels 900 000 on the left and 400 000, 300 000, 100 000 on the right, and a descending right-hand column from 300 000 down to 10 000 in red, yellow, green, purple and tan panels. A quarter of a red-and-cream roulette-style wheel or dial arcs into the top-right corner.
