50-unit Kronenbourg vintage beer ad phone card France

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Visual description

This standard rectangular French telephone card features an iconic Kronenbourg beer brand advertisement on its front. The central illustration highlights two full beer glasses, each bearing the "Kronenbourg" logo in red letters, against a light background. A red telephone wire motif connects the two glasses, symbolizing the theme of communication. In the upper right, the advertising slogan reads: "La communication passe mieux autour d’une Kronenbourg." (Communication is better with a Kronenbourg.)

The upper left corner of the card is equipped with a typical gold chip found on French smartcards. In the lower left corner, a small label reads "TELECARTE 50 UNITES" (50 UNITS TELECARD) accompanied by a chip pictogram. In the lower right, the legal notice "49° D’ALCOOL, AYEZ SOIF DE MODÉRATION" (49% ALCOHOL, THIRST FOR MODERATION) is printed in small letters. The whole is printed on a smooth surface, with dominant colors of golden yellow, white, and red, reflecting the world of beer and conviviality.

The card shows visible signs of use: a few micro-scratches and light marks, mainly on the plasticized surface, without affecting the readability of the inscriptions or the advertising visual. No chips or cracks appear on the side shown.

Condition

Used item sold as is. Shows slight signs of use (micro-scratches, superficial marks), typical of an old circulating phone card. Chip and inscriptions visually intact on the front.

Did you know? Smartcard phone cards appeared in France in the 1980s and peaked in the 1990s, becoming popular advertising media for major brands. Kronenbourg campaigns on phone cards illustrate the importance of visual communication in the telecommunications world before the rise of mobile phones.
