This set of six $8 PhilaTelecards from Grenada, issued on September 14, 1995, features colorful postage stamp designs with Disney characters commemorating the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Each phone card presents a unique Olympic-themed scene with popular characters including Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Pluto.
The first card on a blue background shows Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse carrying a banner that reads "CITIUS • ALTIUS • FORTIUS," the Olympic motto, along with the Olympic rings and a flaming torch. The stamp is marked with a value of 10¢ and includes the text "MOTTO OF THE OLYMPIC ATHLETES." The second card on a green background features Donald Duck in a stadium releasing doves, with a 4¢ denomination. The third card, on an orange background, depicts Donald Duck, Goofy, and Mickey Mouse carrying the flags of the USA, South Korea, and Spain, valued at 3¢ and labeled "CARRYING ALL THE NATIONS' FLAGS."
The fourth card on a pink background shows Daisy Duck and Donald Duck holding the Olympic torch, marked 2¢ with the caption "CARRYING THE TORCH." The fifth card, on a purple background, features Daisy Duck lighting the torch in Olympia, Greece with Goofy holding the torch flame; it is valued at 1¢ and reads "LIGHTING OF THE TORCH IN OLYMPIA, GREECE." The sixth card on a red background portrays Mickey Mouse in astronaut-like gear hovering near the Olympic flame during the opening ceremony, labeled 5¢ with "OPENING CEREMONY" text. Each card is numbered 1735/2000 and bears the ACMI logo and the Olympic rings along with the Seoul 1988 Olympics emblem.
This series combines Disney’s iconic characters with the spirit of the Olympics, blending philately and phone card collecting into an international tribute to the games.
