Abstract

: Phonecards have been collected as a hobby by Brazilian people with a peak in the number of collectors (around 300 thousand people) from 1994 to the beginning of the 2010s. The objective of this study was to report the revival of phonecard collection as a hobby in Brazil through estimating the number of collectors and other associated parameters from April to June 2021. The number of phonecard collectors was evaluated on Facebook groups for each Brazilian State and the Federal District (Brasília) on 16 April, 5 May and 5 June 2021. The number of phonecard collection groups on Facebook from other countries was also evaluated. The number of Brazilian groups was 44 and of members, 81,104 in the last assessment date on 5 June 2021, being the country with the highest number of collectors. In thirteen Brazilian States and the Federal District (Brasília), most of the groups (10) had been opened for around 10 years. Italy had the second highest number of phonecard collectors. The revival of phonecard collection as a hobby in Brazil is clear. This revival is suggested to be associated with the attractive images pictured on phonecards, financial condition of the collectors and locations where they live as well as an increase in the number of hours spent with recreational activities at home.
在巴西,电话卡收集作为一种爱好的复兴
:电话卡已被巴西人民作为一种爱好收藏,从1994年到2010年代初,收藏人数达到峰值(约30万人)。本研究的目的是通过估计2021年4月至6月的收藏者数量和其他相关参数,报告巴西手机卡收藏作为一种爱好的复兴。2021年4月16日、5月5日和6月5日,在巴西各州和联邦区(巴西利亚)的Facebook群组上评估了电话卡收集者的数量。还对脸书上其他国家的电话卡收集群的数量进行了评估。截至2021年6月5日的最后一次评估日,巴西团体数量为44个,成员数量为81104个,是收藏者数量最多的国家。在巴西13个州和联邦区(巴西利亚),大多数团体(10个)已经开业约10年。意大利的电话卡收藏者数量位居第二。收集电话卡作为一种爱好在巴西的复兴是显而易见的。这种复兴被认为与电话卡上的迷人图像、收藏家的财务状况和他们居住的地点以及在家进行娱乐活动的时间增加有关。
