The item has the company name at the top left and numerical dollar value of the exchange ($30) at the upper right. Under the company name is its address and to the left is an image of fruit, palm trees, a grizzly bear, and a fruit orchard. At the bottom left is the statement "WHOLESALE PACKERS 7 / SHIPPERS OF / CALIFORNIA GREEN 7 DRIED FRUITS / VEGETABLES, PRODUCE, ETC." within a block and a banner. Spaces are for date, recipient's name, written-out dollar value, and signature of a company official. At the left, within the logo, are holes from a staple, which was removed before the item was donated. There are also several tears, a vertical half-fold, creasing, browning of the paper, and losses at the bottom left corner, so the overall condition is fair.
