The exhibit was designed by members of the Society of Industrial Artists at De La Rue House [London]. The text gives information in grey. The image features two stylised eyes in green, with the pupils looking right and a 'nose' made up from a bended arrow in blue. The background colour is white. Measures, 73cm by 48cm. Screenprint.

There is also a smaller version for 'circulat[ion] or display' using the same design but with gold and black for the features and the title in black, below the image, in black except for Art which is in gold. Informational text is in black. There is also a handbill version of this design and the image just in black on a white background.
