In the top section of the poster design there is a cartoon drawing of a man in a suit jacket, vest, and tie flying through the air on skis. He has no poles in his hands suggesting that he could be ski jumping. Below the man there is three distinct mountains, with clouds behind them, and trees framing the the edges of the drawing. Below the drawing it says “WITH APOLOGIES TO DEBECK”, “Peter White - 1924”, and “Banff WINTER CARNIVAL - FEBRUARY 7-14. 1925 - The Peoples Playground SKI-ING SWIMMING SKATING TOBOGGANING, ETC.” Surrounding the inscription it is bordered with 3mm design: two lines running parallel to each other with circles drawn in the middle.
