Color background with three color images of Jack August's Seafood restaurant:
(Images clockwise from right)
1. The interior of the restaurant; tables and booths with red checkered table clothes and wooden chairs. Achors, wheels, misc. boat memorabilia decorates the walls and ceiling. One large mirror hangs on wall. Text underneath reads: "Air conditioned."
2. The exterior of the restaurant; building has two entrances; one small entrance on the long side of the one-story building that is facing the camera, and the other which is most likely the main entrance, has two protruding indoor seating areas with large glass windows. A large sign sits on top of the small entrance and reads "MY-T Gud Sea Food / Jack August / 24 Hours from C-2-U." The same sign sits above the main entrance. Another sign that reads "Sea Foods" stands on top of the building beside a large sign that portrays some sort of logo. A large tree is visible behind the building. Text underneath reads: "5 Bridge St, Northampton, Mass."
3. Entrance to "The Seafood Market;" building's facade is red, window reads: "The Seafood Market / 'Fish as You Like it'" with illegible yellow wording beneath. Another sign protruding from building reads: "Eat Fresh Fish." A man in a white apron stands in front of the entrance. Text underneath reads: "Est. 1935 and... Growing."
Text on back reads: "Northampton, Mass. - Famous for Smith College and Jack August's Sea Foods / 5 Bridge St. / Where "Seafood is not a sideline" and served in a homey, nautical atmosphere- 24 Hours from C-2-U."
