Description:

This set of four collectible phone cards from 1994 commemorates the distinguished career of Milwaukee Brewers legend Robin Yount during his Retirement Weekend, held from May 27-29. Each sealed card, designed by Ameritech for Coin$aver, features a different pivotal moment or achievement from Yount’s illustrious career. The cards are available in denominations of $0.50, $2, $5, and $10, serving both as nostalgic memorabilia and functional prepaid phone cards from the era of traditional telecommunications. All images depict Yount in various on-field poses during his time with the Brewers, dressed in either the classic white pinstriped uniform or the blue road jersey—evoking a sense of nostalgia and reverence for Milwaukee’s sports history.

The $10 card highlights Yount at the plate in a batting stance, capturing the focus and intensity that contributed to his over 3,000 hits by 1992. Prominently displayed is the text "Robin Yount Retirement Weekend May 27-29, 1994," along with a celebration of his milestone 3,000th hit—an enduring testament to his skill and longevity. The background features a packed stadium filled with cheering fans, while decorative bunting creates a festive atmosphere honoring this baseball icon. This card stands out with a powerful action shot emphasizing Yount’s historic achievement, framed by the branding of Ameritech and Coin$aver.

The $5 card offers a dynamic scene of Yount running the bases, with "1989 AL Most Valuable Player" noted at the bottom—highlighting one of the crowning achievements of his career. The image portrays a younger Yount, energetic and focused, wearing the Brewers’ uniform with his number 19 clearly visible. This card captures his essence during his prime and celebrates the pinnacle of his career when he was recognized as the American League’s top player. The blurred crowd in the background enhances the sense of motion and excitement of game day, showcasing his speed and tenacity as a versatile athlete.

The remaining two cards commemorate additional key moments in Yount’s career. The $0.50 card honors "Robin Yount Tribute Day" on May 29, 1994, the day his jersey number 19 was officially retired by the Brewers. It features Yount in a blue batting helmet and jersey, sliding into a base with determination and grit—symbolizing his playing style and dedication. The $2 card captures a defensive moment, showing Yount fielding a ball and emphasizing his all-around excellence, including his recognition as a 1980 American League All-Star. Together, this set celebrates Yount’s retirement and highlights various chapters of his impact on Major League Baseball and the Wisconsin community, preserving his legacy in a unique and collectible format.
