Split images show a distant, lighted Grauman's Chinese Theatre on the far left, with colored searchlights above it, next to multicolored blocks of the "floor of fame" occupying most of the card. Signers include John Barrymore, Shirley Temple, John Crawford, and Judy Garland. A paragraph on the back explains that "here, imbedded in cement blocks, on the floor of the" fore-court of the theatre, "are the actual signatures, hand and foot-prints of" Hollywood "celebrities." This linen postcard bears the Curt Teich number 1B-H2166 in the right lower corner, which, according to the guide maintained by the Curt Teich Postcard Archives, refers to postcards made in 1941. The publisher's number in the upper left margin is 809.
