The Great Seal of the United States can be seen on the floor in front of the musicians, and oranges cover the walls and ground at left and right. Signs in the background read: "Los Angeles County The National Playground", while signs in the foreground at center read "The Great Seal of the United States" and "The Spirit of '76".
