The central focus is a stylized, colourful map of the contiguous United States, set against a solid blue background. The entire map is contained within a thin red rectangular border, while the outer area resembles a light wood grain texture. At the top, a prominent white rectangular header features the bold, red-lettered title "WOODEN MAP OF THE UNITED STATES," with the subtitle "PUZZLE PIECES CUT IN THE SHAPES OF STATES" below.
Each individual state is filled with a distinct, flat pastel colour—including shades of yellow, pink, green, and light purple—to create a clear visual separation between neighbors. The map is detailed with black typography labeling state names and major cities, alongside thin black lines indicating rivers. Throughout the states, various small black pictorial icons are dispersed, representing local industries, agricultural products, natural landmarks, or recreational activities, such as pine trees, factories, or symbols representing local wildlife.
To the lower left, an oval-shaped callout with a cream-coloured background informs the viewer, "WORLD MAP ON REVERSE SIDE." Below the map itself, the text "Includes Alaska and Hawaii" is printed in simple white font. The overall aesthetic is that of a vintage, educational children's illustration, relying on high-contrast primary and secondary colours to emphasize geography and regional characteristics.
