AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This antique telephone card, a "Télécarte 50" type, features a typical 1990s design with a vibrant blue dominant color enhanced by orange stripes. The visible side clearly displays the words "Télécarte Goal. Un seul but : téléphoner." (Télécarte Goal. One goal: to make calls.) in white letters on a colored background. The silver electronic chip module is integrated on the left, characteristic of French phone cards from that era.
The card has a classic rectangular shape with rounded corners. The inscription "Télécarte 50" appears in a distinct box at the bottom right, indicating the original capacity in units. The colors are bold, with a clear contrast between the blue background and the orange elements, enhancing the vintage look and the legibility of the inscriptions.
The visual highlights a simple, effective, and decidedly retro graphic design, true to the aesthetic of communication cards from the late 20th century. No telephone brand logo other than "Télécarte" is visible on this side. The electronic chip and careful printing demonstrate the industrial manufacturing typical of 1990s telecommunications.
The text is perfectly legible, with no significant wear or apparent scratches on the visible area. The card appears to have retained its original colors, with no noticeable discoloration. No major defects are apparent on the shown side, making it a decorative or reference piece for enthusiasts of retro design and telecommunications memorabilia.
The presentation on a natural background highlights the graphic aspect and cleanliness of the card. No other accessories or packaging are visible in the image. The surface has a smooth finish typical of this type of plastic chip card.
