Full description

A painted cartoon backglass in a light wood-grain frame. Bright turquoise-blue sky with puffy white cumulus clouds fills the top, and a yellow-banded, red-hulled sailing ship dominates the right, its dark-red square sail carrying a black pennant lettered MILLIONS. Centre-top, large serif capitals read PETER PAN in red with yellow outline and black shadow, with a smaller yellow cursive word above it. Below the title stands a slim cartoon woman in a short yellow-green Robin Hood tunic, matching pointed cap with a feather, green leggings and yellow shoes, holding a short sword down in her right hand, left hand on hip, smirking. Around her stand four small pirate-like figures: a yellow-haired woman in a red bikini top reclining on a rock at lower left, a green-and-yellow clad figure crouching, a purple-clad figure, and a small running figure in a red coat and yellow hat at lower right. Left side: a grove of palm trees whose crowns are drawn as coloured balloons printed with scoring numbers. Bottom centre-left a printed three-reel score window shows 000. Bottom right has a plain white rectangular card area.
