label: Description
content: Scorpio is pictured on the left side of the image, facing two unidentified young women on the right side of the image. He wears a metallic jacket with studs and fringe, multiple stacked necklaces and a black leather biker style cap with rhinestones and studs along the front. He is glancing sideways towards the camera and smiling, his proper right hand holding an unidentified object. Facing him directly is a young woman wearing a dark colored knit sweater. Her eyes are closed and she is smiling. Next to her is another young woman, wearing a light colored short-sleeved sweatshirt style top with contrast stitching and multiple necklaces. She is turned slightly away from Scorpio and is looking directly at the camera. The background is dark, but a lighted exit sign and other individuals are visible behind Scorpio. On the verso is an adhesive label with the Eyejammie.com logo and [Title: Scorpio Cuttin' Up / Photographer: Harry Allen] printed in black text.
