"The Rip Off Press" printed at bottom left, and "D. Sheridan ''72" printed at bottom right in border.

Multi-color poster shows a satire of the James Montgomery Flagg "I Want You for U.S. Army" image. A male figure labeled "James Barleycorn McDope" with long hair, a moustache, and a beard appears at center on a dark purple background. The man points out at the viewer, and he wears a red jacket, bowtie, and a red top hat with a star made from green leaves on a yellow band. A red, white, and blue pin attached to his coat reads, "It''s Time to Decriminalize Marijuana Vote McDope in ''72." Text below the figure in pink, blue, and orange font reads, "Don''t Cop Out / Register, then Vote." A small peace symbol appears in the center of the ''o'' in ''Vote''.
