Full description

Printed pinball backglass with a pale sea-green background. At top left, three stacked wavy ribbon banners list score values in white block numerals with dark outlines, each number followed by smaller digits: the upper crimson banner reads 600 000, 700 000, 800 000 and 900 000, a middle red banner reads 300 000, 400 000 and 500 000, and a lower yellow banner reads 100 000 and 200 000. Small white stars separate the values. Across the top a purple ribbon banner edged in green carries the word MILLION in large white serif capitals over a row of small white stars. Five young women in majorette uniforms march diagonally down the left and centre, each holding a silver-tipped baton aloft: one at lower left in a red-and-gold uniform with green skirt panels, one in a blue two-piece with yellow cape and a plumed shako, one centre in a red skirt and cropped red jacket with yellow cape, one upper right in a green top with white skirt, and one at top right in a purple top and shorts with green cape, all in white boots. Lower right is a marching band of men in dark navy and red uniforms with pillbox caps and a white-uniformed conductor, playing a large red bass drum, a trombone and a tuba, standing behind a red drum-shaped sign lettered POINTS in white. A red squirrel mascot sits at mid-left. The main title MAJORETTES appears in large white block capitals with orange shading, with Williams in yellow script above it.
