[The woman in the Habit style Rational from the 27 February page stands by her signpost at the upper left, and a man in a cap and suit rides a roadster with a handlebar bag at the upper right. A strap-fastened Nushu and a Roadworthy shoe flank the shoe band, and the C.T.C. bag, a rolled cape strapped across its top, fills the center of the lower half. The fractions in the pouch size are too small to resolve in this scan.]
