Nags Head, North Carolina (#16), June-August 1975
1975, printed 2012

A vintage black car with a red cup on its roof is parked in a lot. A person with blonde hair is reclining in the driver's seat, their head resting against the window, eyes closed as if they are sleeping or resting. The background features a white house, utility poles, and another vehicle, creating a suburban setting.
