The center of the unfolded image shows the Sears Tower along with further details also shared by Ferris in the film:
YOU ARE HERE ... on the 103rd floor, "1,353 feet" above ground.
The city, and really anything, is peaceful from that height.
The opposite side of the Skydeck pamphlet offers a variety of facts, figures and photos related to the building.
The guide was published by Rand McNally & Company.
