Description:

This collectible phone card features a striking close-up image of the Statue of Liberty, one of America's most iconic national monuments and historic landmarks. The card presents a detailed, nearly photographic view of Lady Liberty’s face and spiked crown, emphasizing her stoic expression and the verdigris patina that characterizes the statue’s distinctive greenish hue. Set against a clear blue sky, the statue’s contours and shadows are sharply defined, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship of this monumental American symbol located in New York City. The bottom left corner prominently displays the words "Statue of Liberty," clearly identifying the subject for collectors and users alike.

On the left side of the card, a bold red horizontal stripe runs across the otherwise minimalist cream background. Embedded within this stripe is the denomination “10” with the word “UNITS” beneath it, indicating the card’s value for telephone use—specifically, 10 units of calling time. Above the denomination, the recognizable logo and name of telecommunications giant AT&T are printed in black, ensuring clear visibility. This branding links the card to a well-known American telecommunications company, blending the cultural significance of the Statue of Liberty with practical, everyday technology. Such design elements are typical of late 20th-century phone cards produced for travel and tourism purposes.

At the top right of the card, the word “Teleticket” appears in uppercase red letters, extending partially over the edge of the main image of the Statue of Liberty. This term indicates the card’s function as a prepaid telecommunication ticket, a common feature in France and other regions for local and international calling. The “Teleticket” branding also connects the card to French-speaking markets, suggesting it was designed not only for American tourists but also for those familiar with French telecommunication services or collectors interested in American landmarks from a global perspective. This makes the card a unique collectible for enthusiasts of American Americana and international telecommunications memorabilia.

This 10-unit French Teleticket phone card exemplifies the fusion of American cultural heritage with global telecommunication advancements, capturing the essence of American sights and sightseeing appeal. Featuring the Statue of Liberty—a symbol of freedom, hope, and the gateway to America—it appeals to collectors of Americana, American icons, tourists, and historians alike. The design is both functional and visually appealing, reflecting the importance of national monuments in American history and the enduring allure of New York City’s landmarks. As part of the gr2 series and marked with various design elements like the group code, this card stands out as a meaningful piece of cultural and technological history.
