"AUTO RACES" is surrounded by linear lino cuts, each letter is approximately 5cm by 9.5cm long and follows a wave (~) design. Difficult to determine original colour due to the use of this block in non-traditional printing. Traces of hot pink, electric blue, bright red, and light purple can be seen. Sides: residual traces of non-traditional stain on all stains Back: paper has been attached across the entire block. More residual non-original stain
