Amazing Merica, Gt. Barrington, MA
1946, printed 1978

A black and white photo featuring a large drawing of a woman's face with multiple pins stuck into it, displayed behind a window. Above the drawing, a sign with the word "AMAZING" is partially visible. Below the face, the word "MERICA" is prominently displayed, suggesting it is part of a larger sign or message. The image has a gritty, urban feel, and the exact context or location is not clear.
