Wolcott, "Sole Proprietor of" (Wolcott's Instant Pain Annihilator, text in main image, described below); and crates of Wolcott's Instant Pain Annihilator. At centre, the main image: a rainbow behind the words WOLCOTT'S INSTANT PAIN ANNIHILATOR, a demon (right) holding a cork screw being shunned by a tall, dark-haired woman (centre left) wearing a red top, white skirt, and blue sash with white stars, a golden crown with white stars on her head; in the background, happy people gather and conversate behind the woman, while a pit of flame with many angry shades burns behind the demon.
