Description:

(This description is AI generated and may contain inaccuracies.)

This collectible phone card prominently features a photograph of a man identified as Kevin Pirolo, with his name printed in a cursive style beneath the image. Kevin is positioned slightly off-center to the left, standing casually and wearing a blue vertically-striped button-up shirt that is slightly open at the collar, conveying a relaxed and approachable demeanor. The photo has a candid, informal feel, with Kevin’s mouth slightly open as if mid-speech or caught off-guard by the camera, adding personality and authenticity to the card. Behind him, blurred figures and indistinct background details suggest the photo may have been taken at an event or gathering, though the focus remains squarely on Kevin.

To the right of the image, the card transitions into a vibrant, abstract swirl of colors—including blues, greens, reds, and purples—that evoke a cosmic or psychedelic design. Overlaid on this colorful background is a small, pixelated American flag in the upper right quadrant, emphasizing its status as an American collectible. Directly below the flag, the text “ISSUED 08/18/58” is printed in yellow, indicating a significant date—likely the card’s issuance or a nostalgic reference. The swirling pattern adds a dynamic, eye-catching flair, giving the card an energetic, retro vibe that draws attention away from traditional business card aesthetics.

The functional aspect of the card as a phone card is clearly conveyed in the rightmost section, which displays “$1” and the word “Telecard,” confirming its use as a prepaid calling card. Above this, the word “Classic” suggests a heritage or standard of quality. In the bottom right corner, the card features the logo and name of the issuer, “ACI” (Advantage Communications, Inc.), along with the subtle trademark “TM KP,” which may represent either the issuer or the card series. Along the left spine, vertical text reads “PHONE CARD EXECUTIVE” and “ADVANTAGE COMMUNICATIONS SERIES,” highlighting its place within a special, potentially limited-edition collection and enhancing its collectible appeal.

The back of the card (not shown but typically included) usually contains standard phone card features such as a magnetic stripe or chip for calling, instructions for use, terms and conditions, and customer service contact information. This reverse side is essential for understanding the card’s usability beyond its collectible value. It may also feature promotional branding or advertising for Advantage Communications, along with any necessary disclaimers. The combination of personal photography, colorful design, and recognizable branding makes this card both a practical calling instrument and a nostalgic keepsake—reflecting the era in which it was issued and honoring the individual it celebrates.

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.
