A black and white illustration depicting a lively street scene with children playing hopscotch and others walking on the sidewalk. The background features a storefront with signs, including one that reads "The Green Tuber," and posters visible in a window. The play of light and shadow creates a dramatic effect, highlighting the children's activity and the urban environment.
