Scott mentions this card in the US Specialized after SC46 (Souvenir Cards section). There is no value or printing quantity given. Back when it was being offered by dealers, the card sold for around $10, but it had to still be bound in the book. Outside of the book, I'd say the card would sell for two or three dollars.

Does anybody know how many of the Interphil'76 exhibition catalog were printed?

The BEP printed 55,380 of these "cards" for the Interphil programs and sold 50,000. They retail for around $3 by themselves. The SCCS catalog number for this card is B-35. You can find a lot of data on Bureau cards here: http://www.sccscards.com/gallery/B/b-index.html.
Sorry to leave you hanging for six years.

I recently obtained an Interphil76 International Philatelic Passport in a box of kiloware.
It is full. All of the stamps and cancellations appear to be included. Any information about this item would be appreciated. Sorry if this is in the wrong place, it's my first post. Thanks

The Interphil "Passport" was used to go to each of the country booths in attendance at the exhibition. At each booth you would buy a stamp, and it would be cancelled with a special show cancel of that country.
I did that, but did not buy from most countries as they required you to purchase an expensive Interphil stamp to affix to the passport in order to get the cancel. The Russian booth was the easiest as they would let you buy any stamp that they had, and they would cancel it. The US booth required you to buy just a first class stamp (13 cents at the time). I think Canada had a similar policy.
Of course those postal administration booths would let you buy any stamp you wanted, but for the strict countries, only the specific Interphil stamp was allowed to be canceled in the passport (called a money grab for US Dollars).

An Interphil'76 card issued by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration was bound into the Interphil program. My copy of the program has fallen apart. I have the card. What can of value does this card have and how many were printed?
