At the front of the shortest rack (to the right of the frame), there is a handwritten sign on an orange piece of paper which says, "LADIES SLACKS $3". On the wall behind the clothing racks, there are some posters and signs. One is a handwritten sign with red text on white paper. It says, "ALL CLOTHING ON THESE 5 RACKS, $3.00 PER PIECE", with some additional text below, "A SUIT OF JACKET & TROUSERS (OR SKIRT) = 2 PIECES". One of the posters is titled, "Make a Splash About Arthritis!", with the sub-heading, "Water exercise is a great way to keep your joints moving." It depicts people doing various types of water exercise and/or therapy in swimming pools or a hot tub. Another poster depicts a middle-aged woman holding a small dumbbell in one hand. Beside the image is the text, "ACTIVE LIVING: GET STRONGER" (partially obscured). In the bottom right corner of the photo image, there is a date stamp in bright orange digits: "16 4 '02".
