Description:

This collectible phone card showcases a stunning panoramic view of the Edmonton, Alberta skyline. The photograph captures a bright, clear day with a vibrant blue sky serving as the perfect backdrop for the city's cluster of high-rise buildings and towers. It features a mix of modern office structures alongside historic architecture, offering a visual timeline of Edmonton's urban growth. In the foreground, lush autumn foliage in shades of yellow, orange, and green provides a striking contrast to the sleek steel and glass buildings behind. The pyramid-shaped glass structures of the Muttart Conservatory stand out as distinctive architectural elements nestled among the trees, adding a unique touch to the cityscape.

In the top left corner, the bold white "AGT" logo, representing Alberta Government Telephones, indicates the card's issuer. Next to it, the word “HELLO!” appears in capital letters, styled with a playful, colorful horizontal striped pattern that runs through the text—highlighting the brand and emphasizing its function as a phone pass. Below this, the phrase "phone pass" is printed in a smaller, yellow serif font to clarify the card’s purpose. The card’s value, "$20," is prominently displayed in white in the lower right corner, clearly indicating the amount of credit available. Near the bottom left, “Edmonton, Alberta” is subtly printed in white letters to identify the featured location.

The reverse side provides detailed instructions for use, designed to accommodate a wide range of users. It begins with a bold notice: "Do not insert in telephone. (Refunds Not Available)." This is followed by clear, step-by-step guidance on how to activate the "HELLO!" phone pass from any Touch-Tone phone. Instructions include dialing the toll-free access number (1-800-928-8188), selecting language preferences by pressing the corresponding numeric keys (1 for English, 2 for French, 4 for German, and 5 for Japanese), entering the card number, and then dialing the desired phone number. Additional international dialing instructions are provided for calls outside Canada or the U.S., emphasizing the card’s global utility.

At the bottom, more contact information is available for assistance, including a help line at 1-800-361-6311. The card also lists regional telephone providers serviced by the card, such as AGT, BCTEL, Bell Canada, Island Tel, and others, highlighting its extensive usage across Canadian telecommunications companies. Small print details, including "MBCS M323ESTM" and the serial number (06580 88746538), are printed for tracking and validation purposes. Overall, this phone card functions both as a practical communication tool and a collectible item, offering a nostalgic glimpse into Edmonton’s skyline and the era of pre-digital communication.
