Description:
This collectible phone card vividly commemorates the 5M Westchester Stamp, Coin & Paper Money Show held in April 1997. Featuring a rich collage designed to captivate both numismatists and philatelists, the card displays vibrant, artistic lettering at the top spelling out "WESTCHESTER STAMP, COIN & PAPER MONEY SHOW" against a speckled light gray background. Below, the event details— "APRIL 11 - 13 WESTCHESTER COUNTY CENTER" —are boldly printed in black, providing clear and concise information. This card perfectly captures the essence of coin and stamp exhibitions, serving as both a practical calling card and a prized collectible for enthusiasts of rare currencies, stamps, and coins.
The card’s background presents an intriguing montage of historic U.S. currency and stamps spanning centuries, creating a visual time capsule cherished by collectors. At its center is a faded yet recognizable image of a classic one-dollar bill featuring George Washington’s portrait, symbolizing the enduring legacy of American currency and its significance in numismatics. Surrounding this are iconic Americana pieces: a vivid orange-red Zeppelin stamp from a notable era of postal history, along with various other stamps and coins. A prominent feature is the large depiction of the famous Indian Head gold coin, prized for its distinctive artistry and historical value among gold coin collectors. Together, these elements showcase the diverse collectibles that draw numismatists and stamp aficionados to such shows.
Among the prominently displayed stamps is a rare and sought-after issue resembling a Benjamin Franklin stamp in the lower left corner, honoring one of America’s founding fathers and a key figure in philatelic history. Adjacent to it lies a striking V Nickel, reflecting the enduring fascination with vintage silver coins that characterize numismatic collections. On the right side, the face of Lady Liberty reappears on a Standing Liberty quarter, a coin treasured for its symbolic imagery and artistic design in early American coinage. This thoughtful composition balances postage and currency, highlighting the rich connections between these collecting fields celebrated at the Westchester Coin, Stamp & Paper Money Show.
More than just a memento from the April 1997 event at the Westchester County Center, this phone card encapsulates the spirit and excitement of the collectibles world, making it a treasured keepsake for numismatists drawn to Indian gold coins and philatelists alike.
