A long red 1950s-style finned convertible with a blonde woman and a white-capped man belting along with a dust cloud behind them across the bottom of the glass. Beside it a black leaning ramp labelled THOUSANDS stacks the score values 100 to 900 in alternating green, blue, red and yellow, paired with a purple MILLIONS tower counting 8 down to 1. A bulb-bordered red marquee reading GUSHER in huge yellow block letters sits high on the left. Two score-readout areas appear as printed art: a cream drum of odd and even numbered reels and a green-lit grandstand fascia spelling THOUSAND S.

A cartoon-painted backglass showing a waterfront speedway scene under a bright blue sky with white clouds. Upper left: a large red signboard bordered by a ring of white light bulbs, carrying yellow script Williams above the huge block word GUSHER in yellow with black shadow, plus a small white BALL IN PLAY flag on a pole above it. Below the sign a wide white grandstand building with pale blue windows spells THOUSAND S across its fascia, flanked by a green lighthouse on a pier. Right side: a tall black ramp leaning right, topped THOUSANDS, carrying stacked coloured scores 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900; beside it a purple open-frame steel tower labelled MILLIONS runs 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 in bright colours. Centre left is a cream cylindrical grandstand drum showing reels 1 3 5 7 9 11 over 2 4 6 8 10 12 with a small ladder. Bottom: a long scarlet finned convertible with chrome trim, whitewall tyres and a sweeping chrome bumper, carrying two people — a blonde woman in a red top and a man in a white cap with yellow shirt — with a tan dust cloud behind them. Wooden cabinet edges and screw holes frame the glass.
