DescriptionFive people look toward the camera from inside an open automobile. Three are men, and two are women. Two wear riding goggles on their foreheads. A logo on the front of the radiator appears to read, "CROWN", and the automobile's license plate reads, "C 4867". Atop the hood of the car is a stuffed toy bear with its paws up. The car is positioned in a dirt road in the country. The negative was altered by the photographer to create the appearance of dust kicked up by the automobile's wheels.
