Fingerprint: FLIP – VU banner in glowing orange-red capitals on deep purple with thin white outline piping, cyan-blue digital display screen with speckled starfield-like field and pale diagonal light band, two small upright human figures standing at lower screen centre, small red-orange glowing spots, grey plastic bezel with rounded corners, dimly lit arcade cabinet photograph, magenta-violet colour cast
Most memorable is the illuminated banner reading 'FLIP – VU' in glowing orange-red capitals on deep purple. Second is the cyan-blue display below, showing two small standing figures side by side at the bottom centre beneath a pale diagonal light band. Third, the strong violet/magenta ambient glow that stains the entire frame. Fourth, the light grey rounded bezel framing the screen, which stands out against the near-black surroundings.

A low-resolution, dimly lit photograph with an overall violet and magenta colour cast, showing the illuminated upper section of an arcade/pinball-style cabinet against a nearly black surround. Across the top runs a wide dark-purple banner outlined by thin glowing white piping, carrying large block lettering in orange-red with a pale cream outline that reads 'FLIP' at the far left, followed by a long horizontal dash, then 'VU' toward the centre-right. The letters are wide, squared-off sans-serif capitals with a warm glow. Below the banner sits a rectangular screen in a light grey plastic bezel with rounded corners. The screen content is predominantly bright cyan and electric blue: a starfield-like speckled field, a broad pale diagonal band running left-to-right across the middle, and two small upright human-shaped figures standing side by side at the lower centre of the display, one slightly taller, in light-toned clothing against the blue. Small red and orange glowing spots appear on the right of the screen. The image is heavily grainy and soft, and the dark surroundings are indistinguishable.
Backglass Mundial 90
- red
- blue
- white
- yellow
Fingerprint: mundial, enormous close-up goalkeeper with whistle in mouth clutching football to chest filling right half, red jersey and white headband dominating composition, three small running players stacked diagonally down left edge in green and red-white-striped kits against starry blue-violet sky, tilted red banner with huge HOCKEY word above, yellow-orange title high hard left with red 90 beneath, saturated bright gloss cartoon style
The single most memorable element is the enormous close-up goalkeeper with a whistle in his mouth and both gloved hands clutching a football to his chest, his red jersey and white headband filling the entire right half of the glass. A second strong cue is the three small running players stacked diagonally down the left edge, in green and red-and-white striped kits, set against a starry blue-violet sky with a sweeping white glow. The title is unusually placed high and hard left as a single yellow-orange word with the red numerals 90 tucked beneath it, leaving the whole centre-right to the portrait. Yellow wrist straps on the gloves and a small yellow-and-blue shield badge on the breast add small bright accents against the red.

| Kind | Description |
|---|---|
| Man | Young male goalkeeper, waist-up, right half of glass; straight brown bowl-cut hair with white headband, flushed cheeks, white whistle between lips, red long-sleeved jersey with white collar and white sleeve stripes, thick white padded gloves with orange-and-yellow striped cuffs and yellow wrist straps, small yellow-and-blue shield crest on left breast, clutching a white football to his chest |
| Man | Curly red-haired footballer upper left, green short-sleeved shirt, white shorts, white socks, running toward the right with arms raised |

A waist-up portrait of a young goalkeeper fills the right half. He has straight brown bowl-cut hair held by a white headband, a flushed face, and a white whistle between his lips. He wears a red long-sleeved jersey with a white fold-over collar, white stripes down both sleeves, and thick padded white gloves with orange-and-yellow striped cuffs; a small yellow-and-blue shield crest sits on his breast. A white football is tucked against his chest under his gloves. The background is a deep blue-violet night sky scattered with white four-point stars, crossed by a bright white glowing streak down the upper right and a pale yellow beam at lower left, with two thin green pitch lines at the bottom. Down the left side three smaller footballers run diagonally: a curly red-haired player in a green shirt and white shorts, a dark-haired player in a red-and-white striped shirt and white shorts with a ball at his chest, and a green-shirted runner below. The top-left title reads MUNDIAL in chunky yellow-orange capitals with red inline and white outline, with red-outlined numerals 90 below.
