A black and white photo depicting a young boy standing in a parking lot with his hands on his head, in front of a Zayre department store. The store's facade features a large Zayre sign and a striped awning, with several shoppers visible near the entrance. The parking lot is dotted with cars and street lamps, and there are small buildings in the background under a light sky.
