AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Detailed visual description

This smart phone card, known as a Télécarte, features an advertising illustration dedicated to Peugeot Assistance. On the visible side, the design depicts a character kneeling in front of a vintage automobile, working on the front left wheel, thus evoking the concept of roadside assistance. The card is dominated by green and yellow hues, giving it a retro aesthetic characteristic of 1990s promotional materials. In the upper left corner, the words "PEUGEOT ASSISTANCE" are clearly printed in blue, while the Peugeot logo is visible in the upper right, emphasizing the brand's identity.

The electronic chip is clearly visible on the left side of the card, typical of French télécartes from that era. In the lower left corner, the inscription "Télécarte 120" indicates the card's initial unit capacity, a common format before the widespread adoption of mobile phones. On the right, the assistance call number "05.44.24.24" is printed in large white characters, ensuring optimal readability. The overall composition is structured for practical use while displaying an evocative advertising visual.

The surface finish has a smooth appearance with a slight satin effect, typical of laminated cards from the period. No major defects or excessive wear are observable on the visible side, apart from very slight traces of use consistent with normal wear and tear. The corners are rounded and the print remains sharp across the entire surface.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible side shows good overall preservation with moderate signs of use. The chip appears intact and the printed surface remains clearly legible.
