Description:(This description is AI generated and may contain inaccuracies.)
This collectible phone card offers 10 free minutes of call time. The card prominently displays the name "The Budget Gourmet" in large, bold letters, with "The" and "GOURMET" in dark blue and the word "Budget" written in red script above "GOURMET." Below the name, the phrase "CALLING CARD" is printed in white uppercase letters on a blue background. The background image shows a close-up photograph of a pasta dish with visible noodles, diced vegetables, and herbs such as thyme placed on a decorative plate.
The card features a red banner at the top containing the text "FREE MINUTES" in white letters aligned center right, and a blue square with the number "10" in white on the top left corner to indicate the free minute value. The overall design connects the promotional theme of frozen foods or meals with the branding of The Budget Gourmet. The card is marked as "SPECIMEN" on the right side, indicating it is not for actual telephonic use.
The visual presentation and wording emphasize the branding of The Budget Gourmet pasta dish, which expired on June 30, 1995, as referenced by the keywords. This collectible card clearly integrates promotional imagery for this product alongside its function as a phone calling card, combining marketing and telecommunication utility.
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.
