A collage of overlapping black and white newspaper clippings with various headlines and images, creating a textured and layered appearance. The newspapers feature a mix of text and photographs, including portraits and scenes, with some words and phrases such as "PREVIEW," "WALL STREET," and "The" prominently visible. The artwork is signed and dated at the bottom right corner. The background is a neutral tone, providing contrast to the grayscale elements of the collage.
