COLLECTION DE 23000 CARTES TÉLÉPHONIQUES, ENSEMBLE DE MUSÉE
Japan theme
Unique, themed collection of around 23,000 cards (95% telephone cards and 5% transport cards) divided into 40 binders.

NOTE:
A true snapshot of Japanese and international society between 1984 and 2005. This collection has significant documentary, iconographic and design value from this period. The variety of materials used to make the cards also makes them original and rich.
Among the themes covered are Japanese culture and history, including the remarkable prints, as well as almost exhaustive themes covering means of transport, societal issues, tourism, technology and games, flora and fauna, art, advertising, militaria, sports and automobiles, astronomy, music, cinema and more.
Also included are the first series of cards to exist, the "Dendenkosha", precursors in the field and particularly rare and sought-after, as well as cards with special surfaces. Each theme takes up entire albums, or even several albums.

PROVENANCE
Searched for nearly 20 years by a former active member of the Japanese Telecard Association.
