Fingerprint: Pin-Bowler in white script above magenta circle, blonde bowler woman mid-delivery in red blouse and blue shorts, red-haired man bowler crouching at bottom left, loose coloured bowling balls, tilted white cards reading Strike and Spare, ten coloured score panels descending left edge
The most memorable element is a grinning blonde woman in a red blouse and blue shorts frozen mid-bowling-delivery on the right, with a big magenta ball behind the title acting as a backdrop. A curved yellow arrow banner across the top ends in the word 'Million', paired with a left-hand column of ten brightly coloured score panels counting 100000 to 900000. Two oversized tilted white cards reading 'Strike' and 'Spare' in red script dominate the bottom-right corner, each with a small hand-lettered X or slash box. A second, much smaller red-haired man bowler crouches at bottom left beside two loose coloured bowling balls on a white diagonal lane.

Wood-framed painted backglass with a flat sky-blue background. A large magenta/crimson circle sits centre-left, carrying the title in big white script with a yellow drop shadow, reading 'Pin-Bowler' on two lines; above it, in smaller orange cursive, is 'Chicago Coin's'. A curved yellow ribbon banner sweeps across the top edge carrying the word 'Million' in red script at its right end, with a row of small red dots running along the banner. Down the left edge is a vertical stack of ten coloured score panels, from 100000 in a maroon box at the bottom up to 900000 in a yellow box at the top, alternating red, orange, yellow and pink. On the right stands a blonde woman bowler mid-delivery: red short-sleeved blouse with white collar and white trim, blue shorts, bare legs, red socks, blue bowling shoes, right arm swung back and left arm out for balance, grinning. Below her a white bowling lane sweeps diagonally from lower left to upper right, and at the right edge stand three small white pins. At lower left a second bowler, a red-haired man in a red shirt and pale blue trousers, bends forward holding a ball. Two loose bowling balls, one red and one dark blue, lie on the lane near bottom centre. A blue scoring table with white boxes spans the middle-lower area, and two tilted white cards at bottom right read 'Strike' and 'Spare' in red script. Small red, yellow, blue and white stars are scattered across the sky.
