These three collectible Telecards from 1996, titled "TeleCard World '96 New York Skyline Puzzle 3 Cards," feature a distinctive artistic design showcasing the skyline of New York City. Each card has a dark blue background representing the night sky and displays various notable landmarks and locations across Manhattan with their names printed in varied colors and fonts. The text layout is integrated with stylized silhouettes or shapes resembling skyscrapers in the background, lending a puzzle-like effect connecting the cards.
The first card highlights iconic locations such as the United Nations, Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Central Park, American Museum of Natural History, South Street Seaport, The Cooper Union, and landmarks like the Guggenheim and St. Patrick’s Cathedral. It includes the branding “the telecard times™” and shows the denomination of 5 units in the top right corner. The bottom reads “TeleCard World ’96” in red and yellow text.
The second card prominently features the Statue of Liberty near the bottom, accompanied by names of places including Trump Tower, Theater District, Columbia University, Battery Park, Carnegie Hall, Madison Square Garden, The Museum of Modern Art, and The Jacob K. Javitz Center. It also carries the denomination of 5 units and the same “the telecard times™” and “TeleCard World ’96” branding as the first card.
The third card presents more New York City references such as New York Public Library, 59th Street Bridge, Wall Street, Greenwich Village, Rockefeller Center, Pennsylvania Station, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Times Square, Grand Central Terminal, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Chinatown, Soho, Bronx Zoo, and the Convention Center. Like the others, it indicates 5 units and displays the consistent “the telecard times™” and “TeleCard World ’96” text branding.
These cards collectively form a set celebrating New York City’s famous skyline and landmarks through typographic illustration and represent a Telecard event collectible issued by Cable & Wireless (CWI).
