This collectible phone card features the artwork of Margaret Keane, known for her "Big Eye Paintings," presented at the Phair show held in San Francisco, California, from March 4-6, 1994. The card is valued at $5 and displays a large close-up image of a child with oversized eyes, characteristic of Keane’s style. The child’s face is centered inside a stylized black telephone handset graphic, which curves around the face, symbolizing the theme of phone cards and telecommunication.
The background is a solid medium blue with the prominent text “PHONE Card PHAIR” displayed in large, orange capital letters near the top. The text “The Premier Telecard Magazine” appears above this in a white cursive font. A phone number, (805) 541-8500, is printed in the upper right corner inside a red triangular banner. Around the handset, a curved, ribbon-like band is decorated with various colorful international flags, complementing the theme of prepaid phone cards and their global use.
At the bottom of the card, the date and location of the event, “March 4-6, 1994 San Francisco, California,” are printed in white. Below that, a celebratory message reads, “Celebrating the Arrival of Prepaid Phone Cards in America!” This card connects Margaret Keane’s iconic art with the expanding telecommunication culture of the early 1990s, capturing a specific historical moment in the collectible phone card industry.
