Description:

These three collectible U.S. West phone cards are part of a promotional series titled "Connected Schools... Making Education Better Here." Each card features a stylized, colorful schoolhouse graphic with a purple door, orange and green windows, and a red circular element above the door, accompanied by a simple black and white mouse icon connected to the schoolhouse by a black line, symbolizing digital connectivity. The design includes the phrases "ConnectedSchools™," "...Making Education Better Here," and "CHANGING THE SHAPE OF MONEY™" prominently displayed, reflecting an educational and progressive theme.

The cards vary in background color and value. The first card has a black background and a value of $1, printed in orange in the lower right corner. The second card has a white background and a value of $5, with the value printed in orange. The third card, also with a white background, carries a $10 value, similarly shown in orange. All three cards include the U.S. West logo in yellow at the top right and the URL "http://www.uswest.com/connectedschools" along the top edge, emphasizing their origin and connection to the U.S. West brand.

Each card is marked "COMPLIMENTARY" in yellow on the $1 version, and "TELECARD" is printed in yellow on all of them at the bottom right below the value. The embedded gold chip on the left side identifies these as smart chip phone cards designed for use on telephone networks. The consistent placement of design elements and branding across the set highlights their coherence as a promotional series by U.S. West Communications focused on educational initiatives.

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.
