Description:

This set of five prepaid calling cards from TCM Associates, Inc. features artistic watercolor-style illustrations that celebrate jazz music and its musicians. Each card displays a dynamic scene of a jazz performer engrossed in playing their instrument, rendered in expressive strokes and vibrant colors. The first card shows a drummer in a red outfit, energetically playing a drum set with sticks in motion. The second card depicts a saxophone player dressed in a gray jacket and red pants, bending backward while passionately blowing into the instrument. The third card highlights a musician in a red coat performing with a double bass, the large string instrument angled forward as the player bends over it. On the fourth card, a keyboard player wears red pants and a red jacket, seated on a stool while playing the piano. The fifth card presents a lively duet scene with the saxophonist in gray and red, accompanied by the drummer wearing a yellow helmet and gray jacket, captured mid-performance with vibrant movement.

Each card is marked with the denomination $5 in the top right corner and the text "Prepaid Calling Card" at the top left. "TCM ASSOCIATES, INC." along with the TCM logo appears at the bottom center of each card. The illustrations are signed with initials such as "RT" and "KR," adding to the artistic identity of the series. The cards collectively embody the spirit and energy of New Orleans jazz, highlighting the variety of instruments including drums, saxophone, double bass, and piano, portrayed through vivid, abstract yet recognizable imagery.

This collection underscores abstract artistic renderings of jazz duos and musicians, capturing the motion and soul of jazz music with a focus on percussion, wind, string, and keyboard instruments. The colorful and fluid style of the artwork complements the lively and improvisational nature of jazz, making these cards a unique tribute to musical art.
