Fingerprint: Gigantic head-and-shoulders portrait of dark-haired driver in white-blue suit, open-wheel racing cars streaming away toward orange fireball, red car nose with white number 2 at bottom right, MARIO ANDRETTI in red-to-yellow gradient slab-serif, Gottlieb badge, motor racing drama
A gigantic orange-highlighted portrait of a squinting, dark-haired racing driver in a white and blue suit fills the entire left half, far larger than the cars behind him. The title MARIO ANDRETTI is spelled out in enormous red-to-yellow gradient slab-serif capitals across the top with speed streaks. A pack of open-wheel cars streams away down a green track into a burning orange fireball and black smoke plume. A red car nose with a big white 2 sits in the extreme bottom-right corner, and a yellow-and-red Gottlieb oval badge is pinned at the upper left.

Painted backglass showing a huge head-and-shoulders portrait of a dark-haired man on the left, wearing a white-and-blue racing suit with a high white collar and dark blue sleeves. His face is rendered in hot orange, red and pink highlights, squinting into the light with a slight, tired half-smile, thick black hair swept back. Behind and to the right of him a green racing circuit stretches away in perspective, packed with about a dozen open-wheel single-seater cars in red, yellow, blue, white and black, kicking up an orange fireball and thick black smoke plume at the far end. A white-and-blue car with a tall rear wing and a helmeted driver fills the lower centre-right foreground, and a red car nose with a white number 2 points at the viewer at bottom right. Three small pit figures in white overalls stand on the right edge beside the barrier. At top a huge red-and-yellow gradient block serif logo reads MARIO ANDRETTI, with horizontal speed lines behind it, and a small yellow-and-red Gottlieb badge sits at the upper left. Sky is deep blue, the tarmac and grass green and grey.
