This image shows thousands of rabbit bodies piled on town street and sidewalk. Some of these bodies are piled in the shape of a rabbit and spell out "Brush '23" In the background are various town buildings and people are standing in front of the buildings and along the piles of dead rabbits. They appear to be hunters as some are carrying guns. The time of year is winter.. Handwritten on back of print is "Jackson Studio Brush Colo" and showing within the print is "Brush '23" using rabbit bodies.
