A black and white photograph of a group of boys playing a game on a city sidewalk, with two boys crouched down facing each other as if they are about to start a race, while others watch. The setting includes a brick building with windows in the background, and a metal fence to the left. The boys are dressed in casual, mid-20th-century attire.
