The humorous scene depicts a young man gazing upward at a ceiling full of boots in a well-stocked bootmaker's shop, flanked by two alarmed women in elaborate bustle-era gowns. Printed below in the original typography is a comedic exchange titled "What Boots It?" A decorative border frames the scene. Printed by Hobbs Litho, Maidstone. The reverse bears the Day & Martin trade advertisement with Royal coat of arms and text identifying the firm as Manufacturers to Her Majesty, London and Liverpool, proprietors of the Original Japan Blacking.
