A wood-railed playfield photographed in black and white at an angle from the front left, with colours taken from a small colour photo. The surface is yellow and orange with large red areas and dark blue swirls, on varnished wood. Ten mushroom-shaped bumpers stand on it: eight numbered 1 to 8 on their caps, spread from the top to the bottom corners, and two marked 10000 at mid height on either side. Three round discs sit down the centre line, the top and bottom ones with a hole in the middle. The bottom one is the hub of a large flower-shaped rosette whose petals carry values from 5,000 to 50,000. Short white flipper bats are scattered about the field in pairs, not only at the bottom. Black curved labels carry white lettering such as Lites When Numbers 1-2-3-4 Are Made. Two wire-framed gates stand near the top centre.

| Woman | Dark wavy hair, pale yellow strapless gown, seated sideways on a blue curved-back chair inside the central disc, looking back over her shoulder with one hand raised beside her face, a bracelet on her wrist |
A square backglass in a pale wooden frame, seen in a black-and-white factory photograph with colours taken from a small colour photo. In the centre a large black ring studded with dots and stars encloses a red disc. On the disc a dark-haired woman in a pale yellow gown sits sideways on a blue curved-back chair, looking over her shoulder with one hand raised to her face; the title Virginia is written beside her in slanted white script. Around the ring run the numbers 1 to 9, each over the word THOUSAND. Eight yellow-green circles numbered 1 to 8 sit in swirling orange, red and purple ribbons, four down each side. Below, a black scalloped band reads THOUSANDS over a row of coloured numbers 10 to 90. The bottom carries eight oval panels in green, yellow and red reading 100 THOUSAND to 800 THOUSAND, either side of a narrow upright panel reading 900.
