DescriptionA drawing of two dump trucks. They are sitting on a dark line representing a road which is above a green verge. Each truck is driven by a round-head driver with a prominent profile whose hands are planted firmly on the steering wheel. The truck on the viewers left is dumping its load; the other truck is waiting to do the same.
