A Japanese man in a suit and hat standing in front of a Japanese store. The front and side windows at the corner of the store have been broken and there is shattered glass in the window. Posters for "Peg Top Cigars" are posted on the side of the store, near the bottom of the wall. The broken front window has "K. Okada" printed in a large graphic font. A small Caucasian boy wearing a hat leans on the pole. A caption reads, "Anti-Asiatic Riots, Damage done by Asiatic Exclusion League to store of K. Okada, Vancouver, B.C., 1907".
