U-Matic tape excerpt containing a birthday message to Mayor Coleman Young from Thomas Hearns and Emanuel Steward, followed by footage of the Bel Air Shopping Centre parking lot.
The tape opens with a portion from a television commercial for attorney Gary Bloom. Afterwards, footage begins from Thomas Hearns' training camp in Phoenix, Arizona. Hearns is filmed outside, and is noticeably short of breath. He explains that he is training for his match on June 6, 1988 (against Iran Barkley), and wishes the mayor a happy birthday. Next, his trainer Emanuel Steward gives a brief birthday message.
The birthday greetings are followed by footage of the Bel Air Shopping Centre parking lot. Here, the camera pans around the lot. Shoppers, Toys R Us, the lot's satellite building under construction, Kids R Us, and Farmer Jack are featured prominently. The camera operator also interviews an unidentified woman about her experiences shopping at Bel Air; she responds favorably about the mall.
The video is on a 3M UCA-30s U-Matic S tape, with no label and "Thomas Hearns & Emmanuel Steward written directly onto the tape casing. The tape is housed in a 3M black latching case with a label that reads "Thomas Hearns Emmanuel Steward B-day greeting to Mayor C.A.Y."
