A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph captures a crowd of people with light skin tones. On our left, a man in a pinstripe suit and striped tie faces us, mouth a straight line, wearing an "I LIKE IKE" button. To our right, a woman in a dark dress and pearl necklace looks toward our right. She wears a small button featuring a portrait. Several figures fill the high-contrast, shadowy background.
