Poster has a thin white border overall. Poster is printed with a stylized drawing or cartoon overall. The drawing depicts children's cartoon character, Dennis the Menace, on a three wheeled motorcycle on a long empty road in the desert. Seen from behind Dennis is turning to look behind him and is giving the middle finger with his right hand. The background of the drawing is a stylized representation of the desert in yellow, with large blue and purple clouds covering the majority of the sky. The bottom edge of the poster has a small white oval with the text: "Highway / Child". This parody is likely based on the 1969 motorcycle film "Easy Rider." [LMC]
