Colour lithograph small format poster of man wearing plus-fours, strolling along leisurely reading Harper's. He is carrying a long bag, presumably containing a hunting rifle. Two rabbits stand on hind legs nearby with smiles on their faces safe in the knowledge that the man is too engrossed in the magazine to trouble them.
