The cover of this cream-colored pamphlet has a color drawing of an American Indian, with a tattoo of Round Oak on his left leg, holding a peace pipe and pointing to his left. The back cover has a color drawing of an Indian kneeling down and showing a Round Oak stove to a debonair young man standing with his hands in his pockets. The back cover extends to the left with a flap which, when folded over the front cover, shows the Indian on the front pointing to "If You Want To Know" in red and black lettering in a box with a thin black outline. At the bottom is a small color drawing of a peace pipe. The text inside describes the Round Oak stove with black-and-white drawings of various features of the stoves.
