Strike

A cartoon-illustrated bowling-alley backglass. The scene is set inside a bowling centre: a pink and lilac counter runs across the upper half with a blue signboard above it carrying the word SCORE in five pale-blue roundels, and a white mechanical score panel with five black rectangular reel windows below it. On the left wall, which is painted mid-blue with a darker dado rail, hangs a small white wall sign reading NINETY NINE SCORE. Seven figures stand or crouch along the alley floor: a blonde young woman in a pink-and-white checked blouse and mustard mini-skirt doing a celebratory dance at far left; an older grey-haired man in a pink shirt, yellow bow tie and green trousers lunging forward mid-throw; a man in a yellow shirt, red neckerchief and blue checked trousers with one arm flung up; a blonde woman in a sleeveless pink mini-dress beside him; a seated man in a blue-and-white checked shirt behind the counter; a large blue-tinted figure raising an arm behind him; and a young woman in a dark patterned top and mustard skirt leaning on the counter at right. A wooden bowling pin sits on the counter. Across the lower third, a huge red italic STRIKE with a black outline, and below it BALL CAPTURE, overlays a green bowling ball, a blue star, red stars and yellow pin shapes, with a multicoloured rectangular grid strip along the very bottom edge.

A painted backglass with a bowling-alley scene filling the upper two thirds and an oversized title panel across the bottom. The scene shows at least six figures: on the far left a blonde woman in a pink-and-white striped sleeveless top and a short yellow skirt, standing with one hand raised beside a scoring desk; next to her a man in a pale patterned bowling shirt and blue jeans bent low in a follow-through, one leg kicked back. In the centre a tall man in a vertically striped red, white and dark shirt with teal trousers stands with both arms thrown up in celebration, and beside him a blonde woman in a sleeveless fuchsia mini-dress smiles with her arm around him. To the right a man in a dark blue shirt sits at a small pink cocktail table behind the ball-return, and a second blonde woman in a pink dress perches on the bench at the far right edge. A tan wooden lane with yellow approach boards recedes behind the table, with green and magenta walls, blue-grey pin-setting machinery and two blank yellow arrow-shaped banners at upper centre-left. The bottom panel is gold-yellow and reads STRIKE in huge slanted red block capitals with white and black outlines, beside a tumbling white pin, a black bowling ball and scattered blue and white stars. Dominant colours are magenta, gold-yellow, teal-green and black.
