Description:

These five collectible U S West Telecards are from the Native American NorthWest Legacy 1st Edition series, showcasing important cultural artifacts from the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon. Each card features a vivid, close-up photograph of traditional Native American items that are part of the Warm Springs heritage, preserved and exhibited at the Americana Museum at Warm Springs, Oregon. The front sides of the cards highlight different tribal objects, focusing on their craftsmanship and cultural significance.

One card with an orange border and a $1.00 value prominently displays intricately beaded Paiute baskets, revealing detailed geometric patterns in vibrant blues, greens, yellows, and whites. Another card with a purple border and a $3.00 value shows a close-up of handwoven traditional baskets, emphasizing the texture and skill involved in their creation. The card with a blue border and a $5.25 value features a stone bowl and pestle, tools used in many indigenous traditions. The green-bordered card with an $11.00 value presents a collection of finely woven bags or baskets with distinct patterns and earth-tone colors, highlighting the artisanal textiles of the tribes.

The final card, bordered in a reddish-brown color and with a $22.00 value, depicts an elaborate Native American headdress adorned with feathers and intricate beadwork, which symbolizes tribal identity and sacred traditions. All cards bear the "U S WEST COMMUNICATIONS" logo along the bottom, with the series name "A NORTHWEST LEGACY" running vertically on the right side. These collectible phone cards serve as a tribute to the tribal artistry and cultural heritage of the Wasco, Paiute, and Warm Springs peoples.

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.
