One of my best finds yet! It is difficult to contain my excitement!
This is an old International Credit Card issued by a company known as International Charge Inc. It was an early competitor to Diner's Club and American Express. For some reason, the company failed and was absorbed either by Diner's Club or American Express.
There is very little information known about this company other than it was headquartered in Los Angeles, California. I have scoured the Internet for weeks to find additional information but found nothing. Try it out yourself and you will find nothing too! I knew about the company because I have seen old porcelain signs that hung outside of Gas Stations accepting the International Credit Card.
I have been collecting old credit cards for a few years now and I know this one is beyond rare - almost impossible to find - very scarce. I value it as priceless! Enjoy!
