Description:

This collectible phone card features a striking artistic depiction of Mickey Mouse set against a backdrop that evokes the grand tradition of the Olympics—symbolizing international unity and athletic excellence. The central image resembles a postage stamp with perforated edges, framed by a vivid red border that creates a bold contrast against the softer blues and whites of the sky behind Mickey. Above the image, the text reads “GRENADA” alongside a 5-cent denomination, while the phrase “OPENING CEREMONY” hints at the theme of the illustration—the ceremonial start of an Olympic event. Mickey is humorously portrayed as an astronaut or jumper, wearing a white suit and helmet decorated with his iconic black ears. He appears to be propelled skyward by jetpack flames, blending themes of fantasy, exploration, and celebration.

In the background, the Olympic flame is prominently displayed atop a column, with the iconic interlocking Olympic rings glowing gold on the building’s facade. These elements firmly connect the card to the Olympic Games, symbolizing ideals of sportsmanship, international cooperation, and tradition. Small flags from various countries flutter beside the torch, emphasizing the global nature of the event. To the right, the Olympics logo appears with the word “Barcelona” beneath it, referencing the 1992 Summer Olympics held in Spain. The scene is set against a partly cloudy sky, adding depth and evoking feelings of optimism and hope.

Along the bottom border of the card, additional markings include a limited edition number, “00000/12000,” indicating it is part of a collectible series of 12,000 cards. The issuing date, “09/14/95,” is stamped nearby, dating the card to the mid-1990s. The branding “AGMI” appears as well, likely identifying the manufacturer or distributor and emphasizing its authenticity. The top of the card states its value as “$8 PhilaTELECARD™” and notes “patent pending,” highlighting its function as a prepaid telecommunications card rather than just a souvenir. This combination of numerical and textual details balances the artistic imagery, underscoring the card’s practical utility beyond its collectible appeal.

On the reverse side (as shown in the second image), the design shifts to a practical focus on phone card use. The background is plain white, featuring a multi-colored, stylized globe logo near the top, accompanied by the text “WORLDNET SERVICE – Telcard.” Instructions for use are provided, including the specific dial-in numbers and a multi-step process for making calls with the card’s credits. At the bottom, the serial number and possibly terms of service or user guidelines are printed in smaller text, ensuring users understand how to maximize the card’s functionality. Unlike the front’s vibrant, thematic imagery, the back is minimalistic and straightforward, emphasizing usability and clear instructions.
