The image shows a man from the chest up, holding a baseball bat vertically in front of his face. Positioned face-on to the camera, his eyes are visible peeking from either side of the bat, and he has a full, dark beard. He wears a cap that covers his head, and his hair is not clearly visible. His attire consists of a striped shirt that is buttoned up. There are no visible pieces of jewelry. The background features vertical, dark bars flanking the sides of the image, giving an impression of a window or divides. The text "Joe JACHNA" is prominently displayed along the bottom of the image.
