Full description

Painted, comic-style backglass. Left third is filled by two stacked grids of number panels: a top block of nine coloured rectangles each overprinted with a large number (10, 20, 30 / 40, 50, 60 / 70, 80, 90) with a row of four small circles beneath each, and below that two columns of award plaques reading 100,000, 200,000, 300,000, 400,000, 500,000, 600,000 in the left column and 700,000, 800,000, 900,000 in the right, each plaque in a different colour with white arrow shapes pointing outward at its right edge. Upper centre is a white-painted mansion in Greek-Revolution style with a pediment, fanlight window and blue-grey columns, with a crowd of small figures in period dress - women in long red, pink, orange and white gowns, men in dark coats and fezzes, a horseman - gathered on the green lawn before it. Upper right is the title in huge yellow cursive script with orange and black outline: 'Exhibit's' above 'Jeannie'. Right half is dominated by a smiling blonde woman in a white off-shoulder chemise and flowing blue-and-white striped skirt, holding a rope or cord, her skirt billowing out to fill the lower right. Across the skirt is a diagonal band of eight yellow circles with red numerals 1 through 8 ending in the red word 'MILLION'. Sky is pale blue above the building; the ground is flat green.
