A large dismantled sign in Missoula, Montana, lies on its side across a clearing below a dark wooded slope: a panel lettered FOX, an ornate copper-colored end piece, and a long blue lattice frame trimmed with yellow triangles. Dry grass fills the foreground of the black-and-white image, and the sign carries the only strong color. Edition of 10.
