A vertically oriented photogravure closely crops around an older man with light skin tone facing forward. His face, framed by a thick white beard and dark cap, gazes somberly ahead. He wears a ribbed sweater, a strap crossing his shoulder to support a weathered sign. Bold black text on the sign reads "30 W. 18TH ST." and "THE PRICE." White highlights glint on his bulbous nose. Faint, vertical block letters appear in the background.
