The top of the piece has the U.S. Cartridge Company logo at the left next to "SELF CLEANING/CARTRIDGES" The advertisement depicts a man inspecting the chamber and throat of his rifle for fouling. The tagline "Clean as a Whistle" is seen near his arm in a pistachio green circle. Next to the circle is one box each of .22 short, long, and long rifle cartridges. The lower left corner of the advertisement reads "No more fouled,/rusted or pitted barrels". The advertisement is housed in a wooden frame measuring 23x32 1/2 inches.
