This collection features a complete set of 50 different $2 McDonald's collectible phone cards from 1996, each showcasing iconic McDonald's imagery, logos, and historical advertisements. The cards prominently display the McDonald's Golden Arches logo, along with the "McDonald's" name rendered in its classic font style throughout. Many cards highlight vintage McDonald’s signage, billboards, and marketing menus, including nostalgic advertisements for hamburgers priced between 15¢ and 50¢. These depict early McDonald’s promotions such as "McDonald's 50¢ ALL AMERICAN,” “delicious McDonald's CHEESEBURGERS still only 19¢,” and “50 MILLION HAMBURGERS! still only 15¢,” emphasizing the brand’s heritage.
Several cards capture McDonald’s locations and signage across different geographic areas, including two cards labeled "TOKYO, JAPAN," depicting bustling storefronts with Japanese signage and large McDonald’s Golden Arches. Other cards present notable McDonald’s landmarks such as Hamburger University and management training facilities, with one card featuring an official diploma from “McDonald's International Hamburger Marketing University,” dated April 13, 1987. Additional cards honor Ronald McDonald, including one displaying a portrait of a man presumed to be Ray Kroc, the influential figure behind McDonald’s expansion.
A portion of the set showcases different eras of McDonald’s signage and advertising styles, including neon signs at night, classic roadside and drive-in designs, and playful mascots such as “Speedee” and the “Mac Tonight” moon character. The cards present various retro McDonald's menus and promotional materials complete with vintage prices for items such as hamburgers, cheeseburgers, malts, and fries. Other snapshots include scenes from famous McDonald’s locations, nighttime shots of a casino marquee advertising “QUARTERMANIA SLOTS” alongside McDonald’s neon signs, and whimsical images like Ronald McDonald with a tray or pointing towards a calendar promotion. The set vividly celebrates McDonald’s rich advertising history, worldwide presence, and cultural impact through diverse, collectible imagery.
