This party booth at Wolhurst, in Littleton, Colorado, is built in the likeness of a ship. It has lines of signal flags, masts with crow's nests, and United States flags on the yardarms and bow. The sides are counters laden with boxes and scales; people tend them. A taxidermied eagle adorns the forecastle, by a ship's bell. An ivy covered utility building is in the background.
