The visible side showcases a color photograph of a man in a close-up shot, holding a telephone, against the backdrop of an indoor public space (likely a train station or airport, given the background structure and the presence of blurred passersby). The top left corner displays a golden electronic chip, characteristic of French phone cards from that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the bottom left corner of the card, the inscription \"TELECARTE 50\" in black capital letters indicates a capacity of 50 units, a common format in the late 20th century. The edges of the card are slightly rounded, in line with the standard for chip-based phone cards. The entire surface shows a clear visual, with no major scratches or apparent discoloration on the visible front face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe photographic portrait occupies most of the card, giving the object an iconic and retro look. The person, dressed in a dark coat, has a serious and focused expression, enhancing the cinematic aesthetic of the whole. The background, intentionally blurred, highlights the main subject while suggesting an urban or transit atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe electronic chip, positioned at the top left, features a typical technical pattern of French models. No specific brand or logo is visible on the front, apart from the graphic elements mentioned. No major defects are observable on the surface, apart from some minor signs of wear consistent with normal handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis vintage phone card is an emblematic testament to public communication before the era of widespread mobile phones. Its cinematic visual makes it a decorative or curiosity item for lovers of retro design, 90s memorabilia, or popular iconography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nUsed item sold as is.
