His arms and legs are both outstretched in a "V" position. In the background are spectators and a large red, white, and blue banner that reads, "The Challenge of the Sexes, Mission Viejo" in the center of the banner. The frame of the slide has a label that reads, "75-022, Frame 003" and "35, Nov 75H4" printed in red ink.
