A vertically oriented sketch in black ink and graphite on cream-colored paper depicts a man with a mustache and receding hairline, wearing a suit and patterned tie. From the waist up, he holds a phone to his ear with his left hand and the neck of a saxophone with his right. Dense, dark hatching defines his features and clothing. Scribbled lines suggest a background, and spiral binding lines the left edge.
