A black and white photograph of Just-Ice on the roof of Sleeping Bag Records in New York City. Just-Ice is pictured center frame, sitting on the ledge of the rooftop, the city skyline behind him. He is leaning forward, his proper right hand raised near his face to display a large knuckle ring with the letters [MR JUSTICE], his lips bared to display jeweled fronts on both his top and bottom teeth. There are large rings on every finger of his proper left hand, which rests on his right leg. He is wearing a Nike sweatshirt and sweatpants, a knit cap, and a necklace with a round medallion. On the back of the print are two inscriptions by Bill Adler identifying the subject, location, date, and photographer.
