Description:

This collectible phone card features a striking image of an Indian elephant standing in shallow water, set against a naturalistic backdrop. The elephant’s large ears, curved tusks, and textured skin are vividly portrayed, emphasizing its majestic presence. The partly cloudy sky, with a gradient of blue and white, provides a serene contrast to the elephant’s dark, wet form. This artwork underscores the focus on wildlife conservation, particularly highlighting the Indian elephant as an endangered species—a message reinforced by the card’s accompanying text.

On the left side, the phrase “ENDANGERED SPECIES SERIES” runs vertically, with “INDIAN ELEPHANT” boldly printed below in yellow, capitalized letters. These elements frame the elephant image and immediately convey the card’s conservation theme. The water beneath the elephant suggests its natural habitat, evoking the wild environments these animals inhabit. This emphasis on survival aligns closely with the endangered species motif.

The right side of the card features a deep, textured brown background reminiscent of rich earth or an abstract forest floor. Near the top, the Indian national flag is prominently displayed, clearly illustrated with its saffron, white, and green horizontal stripes and the blue Ashoka Chakra at the center—symbolizing the card’s cultural connection to India. Below the flag, the issuance date “11/06/95” appears in bright yellow, alongside the serial number “0419/5000,” indicating this card is part of a limited edition series, enhancing its collectible appeal.

The card’s monetary value, “$3,” is prominently shown in a large, bold yellow font, matching other text on the card. The word “TELECARD” is oriented vertically near the right edge. Near the bottom, the “ACMI” logo appears above a trademark symbol, accompanied by the letter “E,” which may denote a category or series within the issuing company’s product line. Together, the combination of wildlife imagery, national symbolism, and clear labeling makes this phone card a compelling keepsake—both raising awareness about the Indian elephant’s plight and celebrating its natural and cultural significance.
