Description
This listing is for a French phone card in credit card format, shown in the photo, a promotional item for the chewing gum brand Clorets. The card prominently displays the "Clorets" logo in green, accompanied by the slogan "Pour être sûr de son haleine" (To be sure of your breath) in red, and the mentions "Avec Actizol® & Chlorophylle" (With Actizol® & Chlorophyll) on a green band at the bottom. The top right corner bears the inscription "TELECARTE 50", indicating a capacity of 50 units, typical of French phone cards from the 1990s. The top left corner features the electronic chip characteristic of these cards, clearly visible and intact on the face shown.
The advertising visual adopts Clorets' brand identity, with a white background, touches of green and yellow, and a stylized yellow cross in the bottom right. The design is typical of advertising campaigns from that era, playing on the freshness and effectiveness of the product. No other visuals or inscriptions are visible on this side.
The card has a smooth, glossy surface, with no apparent scratches or chips on the visible area. The corners are rounded, and the cut is clean, conforming to the standard format of French phone cards. The entire print is clear, and the colors are well-preserved, with no visible discoloration.
This is an iconic collector's item from the 1990s, at the intersection of advertising and telephony, particularly sought after for its advertising visual and the reference to the Clorets brand, well-known for its chlorophyll chewing gums.
This card is ideal for completing a set of advertising phone cards or for any enthusiast of retro design related to 90s communication and consumerism.
