A horizontally oriented paper folio features dense rows of black and red script across an aged tan page. Three solid red circles are spaced across the center, with a large, irregular tear at the top. Thin vertical red lines separate the main body of text from smaller columns of script in the side margins. The blocky script is punctuated by red vertical strokes throughout the central rows.
