This collectible phone card features a close-up photographic image of Hugh Romney, known as Wavy Gravy, a notable figure in 1960s counterculture and entertainment. He is wearing a colorful tie-dye hat with vibrant reds, blues, purples, yellows, and greens. The bright colors of the hat draw attention and contrast with his face, which is smiling broadly, showing distinctive gaps in his teeth. The lighting highlights his facial features in strong relief, suggesting sunlight or bright ambient light. The photograph captures Wavy Gravy’s cheerful and welcoming personality.
