The page features a graphic of a vault door on the left, with the title "THE BLACK VAULT" in stylized white letters against a blue, smoky background. Text in white lists the source of the document as "The Black Vault," an online database of declassified government documents, specifically mentioning the MKULTRA/Mind Control Collection, housing over 20,000 pages from the CIA. A yellow URL, "http://mkultra.theblackvault.com", is provided for downloading the collection. There are no photographs, handwritten annotations, official stamps, forms, diagrams, tables, redactions, or evidence of experimental procedures visible on this page.
The document appears to be a typed report with some handwritten annotations. There are several large, dark redactions obscuring portions of the text on the upper and middle sections of the page. In the upper right margin, there is a handwritten annotation: "A/B, 3, 2/133". An "A" is also handwritten in the left margin of the middle section. The text itself discusses "SI Testing" conducted in July 1951, mentioning "experiments and tests" with subjects and their responses, including being in a "deep trance state." There is no visual evidence of people, locations, equipment, diagrams, tables, or forms, only the typed report and the handwritten marks.
