Description:

This collectible phone card from 1996 features a vibrant and distinctive design celebrating the Atlanta Summer Olympics and AT&T’s role as an official sponsor. The artwork prominently displays six stylized athletes rendered in a modern, almost abstract style. Each athlete’s face is vividly colored in bold, contrasting shades of orange, blue, green, red, and yellow, capturing the energy and diversity of Olympic competitors. The figures convey motion and determination, with a central runner in mid-stride symbolizing the spirit of competition, endurance, and the iconic track and field events closely associated with the Olympics.

Centered on the card is the text “10 UNITS,” indicating its calling value, alongside “AT&T PREPAID CALLS,” highlighting its function as a prepaid telecommunications product. This practical information reflects the era when prepaid phone cards were widely used for convenient communication, especially during international events like the Olympics. The font and placement are clean and authoritative, providing a clear contrast to the dynamic artwork above and below, balancing functionality with visual appeal.

In the lower right corner, two key logos reinforce the card’s official status. The AT&T globe emblem, with its distinctive blue stripes, underscores the company’s longstanding global telecommunications presence. Next to it, the USA Olympic Team logo features the five interlocking Olympic rings beneath the red “USA” lettering, confirming AT&T’s role as the “Official Sponsor 1996 U.S. Olympic Team.” The small print beneath reads “36 USC 380,” referencing U.S. copyright law, which ensures that all logos and trademarks on the card are officially licensed and protected. This detail underscores the card’s authenticity and collectible value.

The background design combines solid colors and textured stripes in green, yellow, orange, and black, adding visual interest and depth. Subtle images of a globe are integrated into the pattern, symbolizing international unity and the global reach of both the Olympic Games and AT&T’s telecommunications network. This 1996 collectible phone card offers a striking blend of sports history, corporate branding, and artistic flair—making it a treasured memento that represents the unity and excitement of the Atlanta Olympics, the spirit of the U.S. team, and AT&T’s vital role in connecting fans and athletes during this worldwide event.
