A vertically oriented etching in black ink on cream paper depicts a head-and-shoulders portrait of Charles Lindbergh. Facing slightly right, the man has wavy dark hair and a set mouth. Dense, diagonal cross-hatching renders his suit jacket and tie, while light, expressive lines detail his facial features. Handwritten text at the top left reads "Levon West May 1927," with an artist's signature appearing in the bottom right margin.
