Description
Three different scenes are arranged vertically and drawn in pencil. The top two scenes are numbered 13 and 14 (numbers in circles) respectively. The top scene is of a car driving away from the viewer, over rural hills. The sky has light rays that radiate from the far horizon. The middle scene shows the back of a man sitting at a typewriter. The typewriter sits amid many books on a desk. The bottom scene is difficult to discern because it is sketched rather roughly. In the top half of the scene are crudely drawn circular and triangular shapes. Diagonal lines occupy the bottom half.
