- A color photographic slide depicting several individuals standing at a New York Gay Pride Parade. At the top left corner is a bunch of red helium balloons. An American flag is at the center of the image, next to black speaker boxes, with multi-colored helium balloons above. A man wearing sunglasses, silver earrings and a black tank top stands in the center foreground of the picture. He is looking to his right with his lips slightly parted. In front of him is another man facing the flag; he sports a blue t-shirt with his black hair is combed back. The slide film is housed in a light gray encasement with four black rivets securing it (one on each side of the encasement).
