Description:

The card is a BellSouth Telecom Technical Trial Card, the first issue featuring a magnetic stripe. The design prominently displays various depictions of telephones and payphones, reflecting its purpose as a pay phone card. The imagery includes several payphones, handsets, and telephone keypads, arranged in a collage style across the card’s surface. The background is a muted, grayish tone that helps highlight the telephones in the foreground.

At the top right corner, the card displays the BellSouth Telecom logo, confirming the issuer of this technical trial card. Near the bottom left corner, there is text specifying the card’s use: "$1 Technical Trial Card - 1st Issue - Mag Stripe (Pay Phones Design)." This text is printed in a clear, sans-serif font in white, standing out against a darker strip at the bottom of the card.

The card also includes the designation “SKU-10385 - User Card” printed discreetly on the card, linking it to its catalog or internal tracking code. The overall layout is clean and functional, reflecting the card’s use for testing purposes within BellSouth Telecom’s operation. There are no additional logos or characters aside from the telephones depicted.

There are no people shown in the image itself, only the telephones. The card is strictly focused on showcasing the technical trial design aimed at pay phone use through BellSouth Telecom, making it a collectible example of telecommunication history during the era of payphones.

Since we have the world's largest inventory of USA phonecards for collectors, you will not necessarily receive the identical serial/batch/PIN number that we have scanned/pictured.
