A vertical black-and-white photograph depicts three adult, light-skinned men interacting in a dark, wood-paneled interior featuring a large illustration of a woman on the wall. In the foreground, a seated man in a checked drivers cap is visible from the shoulders up; he looks off to the left of the image. In the middle ground, one man faces forward, raising a small glass of beer, and another man faces him with an extended arm resting on his shoulder.
