description

Summary

Two figures are shown standing outdoors in the snow, one with a jack-o-lantern head and the other with a snowball for a head. The jack-o-lantern wears a bow tie labled "Halloween" and holds a party horn. From the corner of its mouth, smoky breath eminates, perhaps serving as an indication of the cold temperature. The snowball, in mittens and a tie labled "Minnesota Snowball," stands next to the jack-o-lantern holding one hand to his mouth.
