Description:

This collectible phone card is part of the Endangered Species Series, featuring the majestic humpback whale. The design prominently displays a striking image of a humpback breaching the water, capturing a powerful and graceful moment that highlights nature’s beauty. The scene shows the whale mid-air against a backdrop of lush, mountainous terrain with a snow-capped peak, suggesting a pristine, remote habitat. The left side of the card is dedicated to this vibrant blue and green landscape, which sharply contrasts with the more subdued, textured gray background on the right side.

On the right, the card features a prominent American flag, symbolizing the country of issue. Beneath the flag, there is a gold-embossed "ISSUED 01/15/94" date, along with a serial number, “0000/1500,” indicating this card’s place within a limited edition of only 1,500 units—underscoring its collectibility and rarity. Just below the serial number and date, the corporate branding of Advantage Communications, Inc. ("ACT") appears in bold red and yellow, with clean, straightforward typography that lends a professional and official appearance to the card.

In the upper right corner, the value "$20 TELECARD" is displayed in bold yellow font, standing out clearly against the gray marbled background, emphasizing both its practical use and collectible appeal. Along the left vertical border, a red band features “ENDANGERED SPECIES SERIES” in smaller white letters, with the larger, bolded yellow text “HUMPBACK WHALE” oriented vertically, complementing the visual theme on that side.

The reverse side of the card adopts a more functional design, focusing on essential technical and usage information. It contains instructions and terms of use written in English, explaining how to operate the telecard and providing customer service details. The back also includes a magnetic strip or other necessary identifiers for use in payphones. Its color scheme is simpler, prioritizing clarity and readability, with minimal graphics to maintain focus on the functional text and technical components. Overall, the back complements the front’s collectible design while offering the practical utility typical of 1990s telecards.
