Corn-Popped Ruscha
1963

A sketch featuring the word "RUSCHA" in bold, stylized letters that appear to be bursting out with cloud-like puffs and lines indicating motion or explosion around them. The letters are shaded with yellow and outlined in black. The artist's signature and the year 1963 are written in the bottom right corner.
