PROSPECTUS
                                1,865,152 shares

                                INTELLICALL, INC.

                                  Common Stock

     All of the shares of Common  Stock,  par value $.01 per share (the  "Common
Stock") of  Intellicall,  Inc.,  a Delaware  Corporation  ("Intellicall"  or the
"Company"),  offered hereby are being offered for resale by certain shareholders
of the Company (the "Selling  Stockholders") as described more fully herein. The
Company  will not  receive  any  proceeds  from the sale of the  shares  offered
hereby.

     The  shares of Common  Stock  offered  hereby by the  Selling  Stockholders
consist of (i) in  accordance  with Rule 416 of the  Securities  Act of 1933, as
amended (the "1933 Act"), a presently  indeterminate  number of shares issued or
issuable  upon  conversation  of or  otherwise in respect of 4,000 shares of the
Company's 7% Series A Convertible  Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"),  and
(ii) 36,580 shares of Common Stock issued to Swartz Investments,  LLC as partial
consideration for arranging the sale of the Preferred Stock. For the purposes of
calculating  the  number of shares of  Common  Stock  beneficially  owned by the
Selling  Stockholders  holding  Preferred  Stock, the number of shares of Common
Stock  calculated  to be  issuable  in  connection  with the  conversion  of the
Preferred  Stock is based on a price of $2.1875 per share,  which price is below
the price per share of $5.6875 as of the date of this Prospectus. The number of
shares  available for resale,  however,  is subject to  adjustment  and could be
materially  less or more than such  estimated  amount  depending  on the  future
market price of the Common Stock. This presentation is not intended,  and should
in no way be construed, to constitute a prediction as to the future market price
of the Common Stock.  See "Risk Factors -- Potential  Dilution;  Shares Eligible
for Future Sales;  Possible Effect on Additional  Equity Financing" and "Selling
Stockholders." 
                  -------------------------------------------

         THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVE A
         HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.  SEE "RISK FACTORS" AT PAGE 6 OF THE
         PROSPECTUS.

         THESE   SECURITIES  HAVE  NOT  BEEN  APPROVED  OR  DISAPPROVED  BY  THE
         SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE  COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES  COMMISSION
         NOR HAS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE  COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES

         REPRESENTATIONS TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

     All  expenses  of this  offering  will be paid by the  Company  except  for
commissions, fees and discounts of any underwriters,  brokers, dealers or agents
retained by the Selling Stockholders.  Estimated expenses payable by the Company
in  connection  with this  offering are  approximately  $15,500.  The  aggregate
proceeds to the Selling  Stockholders from the Common Stock will be the purchase
price of the  Common  Stock  sold  less the  aggregate  agents'  commission  and
underwriters' discounts, if any. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling
Stockholders  and certain other persons against certain  liabilities,  including
liabilities under the 1933 Act.

     The Common Stock being registered under the Registration Statement of which
this  Prospectus  is a part may be offered  for sale from time to time by or for
the account of such Selling  Stockholders  in the open  market,  on the New York
Stock  Exchange  ("NYSE"),   in  privately   negotiated   transactions,   in  an
underwritten  offering,  or a  combination  of such  methods,  at market  prices
prevailing  at the time of sale,  at prices  related to such  prevailing  market
prices  or at  negotiated  prices.  The  Selling  Stockholders  and any  agents,
broker-dealers  or  underwriters  that  participate in the  distribution  of the
Common Stock may be deemed to be  "underwriters"  within the meaning of the 1933
Act and any  commission  received  by them and any  profit on the  resale of the
Common  Stock  purchased by them may be deemed to be  underwriting  discounts or
commissions   under  the  1933  Act.  See  "Use  of   Proceeds"   and  "Plan  of
Distribution."

     The Common  Stock of the Company is listed on the NYSE  (Symbol:  ICL).  On
October  3, 1997,  the closing  sale price of the Common Stock on the NYSE was
$5.6875.

                                  RISK FACTORS

Recent History of Losses

         The  Company   incurred  net  losses  of  $4,995,000,   $6,139,000  and
$14,466,000  for the  fiscal  years  ended  December  31,  1996,  1995 and 1994,
respectively,  and a net loss of  $3,097,000  for the six months  ended June 30,
1997. Such losses are primarily  attributable to profit margins on the Company's
hardware  products  which have been  insufficient  to meet  selling,  marketing,
sustaining  engineering,  and  other  general  and  administrative  costs of the
Company.  The  Company's  historical  losses have  required  the Company to seek
various  sources of  financing,  including the sale of assets of the Company and
the sale of debt and equity  securities  including the Preferred Stock purchased
by certain of the Selling Stockholders. While the Company believes operations of
the Company are  improving,  there can be no assurance  that the Company will be
able to return to profitability.

Changes in Management

         The Company has recently made various management changes as a result of
one of the Company's prior senior executive  moving to the Company's  majority -
owned subsidiary, ILD Teleservices, Inc., and the retirement of its former Chief
Financial  Officer.  John J.  McDonald,  Jr.  has  become  president  and  chief
operating  officer  of the  Company  and  John M.  Carradine  has  become  Chief
Financial Officer.  William O. Hunt, the Company's prior president, has remained
as Chairman of the Board and Chief  Executive  Officer.  Mr. McDonald joined the
Company in February 1997 while Mr. Carradine has been with the Company for seven
years in roles of  ever-increasing  responsibility.  While the Company  believes
these  management  changes  are  beneficial  to  the  Company,  there  can be no
assurance  that the new senior  management  team will be able to  implement  the
Company's strategy.

Potential Redemption of Preferred Stock

         Pursuant to the  regulations of the NYSE, in the absence of shareholder
approval,  the  Company may not issue,  in the  aggregate,  more than  1,860,500
shares of Common Stock upon conversion of all of the Preferred Stock. The actual
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon  conversion  of the Preferred
Stock will  depend on the  average  closing  price of the Common  Stock prior to
conversion.  The Company is obligated  to redeem any shares of  Preferred  Stock
which may not be  converted  into  Common  Stock as a result of such  regulatory
limitation,  unless the Company timely obtains  shareholder  approval.  The cash
demands to fund such a redemption may adversely affect the Company's  ability to
make future  capital  expenditures  and fund the  development  and launch of new
products  and/or  services.  Furthermore,  there  can be no  assurance  that the
Company will have cash available to fund such a redemption.


                                        8

<PAGE>




Possible Need for Additional Financing

         Although  the Company  anticipates  that the net proceeds of its recent
placement  of  Preferred  Stock  and  its  cash  flow  from  operations  will be
sufficient to fund the Company's  operations during the short term, there can be
no assurance that the Company will not require additional financing prior to the
end of such  period.  The  Company's  future  liquidity  will depend on spending
levels,  working  capital  turnover and the volume and timing of equipment sales
and gross margins related thereto.

Recent Telecommunications Act

         The Company's pay telephones in the United States are principally  sold
to   independent    payphone   providers.    In   1996   Congress   passed   the
Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Telecom Act") pursuant to which the Federal
Communications  Commission (the "FCC") was authorized to evaluate and adjust the
amount  of the  compensation  paid  by  long-distance  carriers  to  independent
payphone  companies when consumers  access a long-distance  carrier  directly by
dialing  an  access  or an 800  number  or by  using a  calling  card  which  is
non-billable  by the payphone  provider and thereby  "dial-around"  the payphone
provider's  long-distance  carrier  (from whom the  payphone  provider  receives
compensation)  in order to reach  another  long-distance  carrier (from whom the
payphone provider would not receive  compensation) ("Dial Around").  In November
1996, the FCC issued an order to increase compensation to payphone providers for
Dial-Around;  however such order was  appealed to the U.S.  Court of Appeals for
the D.C.  Circuit,  which  court  ruled in July 1997  that the  FCC's  basis for
determining Dial- Around  compensation was  inappropriate.  The Court of Appeals
ordered  the FCC to  re-examine  the  Dial-Around  compensation  structure.  The
Company's  customers  will be  impacted  by the  FCC's  final  determination  on
Dial-Around  compensation.  If such  compensation is reduced,  the determination
could have an adverse impact on the Company's sales of pay telephones.

Competition

         The industry in which the Company  operates is  intensely  competitive.
Many of the Company's existing and potential competitors have far more extensive
financial,   engineering,  product  development,   manufacturing  and  marketing
resources than the Company.  The Company's  products and services compete on the
basis of a  number  of  factors,  including,  (i) in the  case of the  equipment
business,  price,  quality,  features and  functions,  reliability,  service and
support and (ii) in the case of the services  business,  amount of  compensation
paid to payphone providers and pricing of long-distance  services.  There can be
no assurance  that  competitors  will not  introduce  products  and/or  services
incorporating technology as advanced or more advanced than the Company's or that
changes  in the  telecommunications  environment  will not  render  competitors'
product  solutions more  attractive to customers  than the Company's  solutions.
Competitive  pressures often  necessitate price reductions which the Company may
not be able to achieve or which could adversely  affect profit margins which, in
turn, could adversely affect operating  results.  There can be no assurance that
the  Company  will  be  able  to  compete  successfully  with  existing  or  new
competitors  or  that  competitive  pressures  faced  by the  Company  will  not
materially  and  adversely  affect  its  business,  results  of  operations,  or
financial condition.

Potential Dilution; Shares Eligible for Future Sales;
Possible Effect on Additional Equity Financing

         A substantial  number of shares of Common Stock are or will be issuable
by the Company upon the conversion of the Preferred  Stock,  upon  conversion of
debentures  previously  issued by the Company and upon the  exercise of warrants
that the Company has issued,  which could result in dilution of a  shareholder's
percentage  ownership  interest in the Company  and could  adversely  affect the
market price of the Common Stock.  Under the applicable  conversion  formulas of
the  Preferred  Stock,  the  number  of shares of  Common  Stock  issuable  upon
conversion is inversely  proportional to the market price of the Common Stock at
the time of conversion (i.e., the number of shares increases as the market price
of the Common Stock  decreases);  and except with respect to certain  redemption
rights of the Company for the Preferred Stock,  there is no cap on the number of
shares of Common  Stock that may be issued.  In  addition,  the number of shares
issuable upon the  conversion of the  debentures and the exercise of warrants is
subject to adjustment  upon the  occurrence of certain  dilutive  events.  For a
complete  description  of the  rights of  holders of  Preferred  Stock,  see the
Company's  Current  Report on Form 8-K/A  dated  July 21,  1997,  including  the
exhibits thereto.

         On August 15,  1997,  there  were  issued  and  outstanding  a total of
9,339,201  shares  of Common  Stock.  If all the  Preferred  Stock  (assuming  a
conversion  price of $2.1875) and convertible  debentures  which the Company has
issued  were  converted  into  shares  of  Common  Stock  and  if  all  warrants
outstanding  were  exercised,  there would be outstanding  13,943,254  shares of
Common  Stock.  Of these,  the  Company  currently  has  registered  for  resale
1,865,152 shares of Common Stock as contemplated in this Prospectus. The sale or
availability  for sale of a significant  number of shares of Common Stock in the
public market could  adversely  affect the market price of the Common Stock.  In
addition,  certain holders of outstanding  securities of the Company have rights
to approve and/or participate in certain types of future equity financing by the
Company. The availability to the Company of additional equity financing, and the
terms of any such financing, may be adversely affected by the foregoing.

Dividend Policy

         The  Company  has  never  paid  cash  dividends  on its  Common  Stock.
Furthermore, the Company currently intends to retain any future earnings for use
in its  business  and does not  expect to pay any cash  dividends  on its Common
Stock in the foreseeable  future.  The Company's  senior secured loan agreements
prohibit the Company from paying  dividends.  Any future change in the Company's
dividend  policy will depend upon the  earnings  and  financial  position of the
Company, the nature of any restrictions on the payment of dividends contained in
debt  agreements  which the Company  has  entered  into or may enter into in the
future and such other  factors as the Board of Directors of the Company may deem
appropriate.

Preferred Stock; Anti-Takeover Provisions

                  The Company's  authorized but unissued  capital stock includes
1,000,000  shares of  preferred  stock,  par value  $.01 per share  ("Authorized
Preferred  Stock"),  of which 4,000 shares are currently issued and outstanding.
The rights of the holders of shares of Common Stock may be adversely affected by
the preferential rights afforded to the holders of the Preferred Stock

                                       10

<PAGE>



currently outstanding and any shares of Authorized Preferred Stock that may from
time to time be issued by action of the Board of  Directors.  In  addition,  the
Company's  Certificate  of  Incorporation  and  Bylaws,  as well as the  General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware  ("DGCL"),  contain certain  provisions
that may have the effect of  discouraging an unsolicited  acquisition  proposal.
Furthermore,  upon a change in control of the Company, options granted under the
Company's stock option plans become immediately exercisable.

                                 USE OF PROCEEDS

         The proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby
are solely for the account of the Selling Stockholders. Accordingly, the Company
will receive none of the proceeds from the sale thereof.

                              SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

         The  Selling   Stockholders   are  certain   persons  who  provided  or
facilitated equity financing to the Company.  The shares of Common Stock covered
by this Prospectus are being registered to permit secondary  trading and so that
the Selling  Stockholders may offer the shares for resale from time to time. See
"Plan  of  Distribution."  Except  as  described  below,  none  of  the  Selling
Stockholders  has had a material  relationship  with the Company within the past
three  years  other than as a result of the  ownership  of the Common  Stock and
other securities of the Company.

         The following  table sets forth the names of the Selling  Stockholders,
the number of shares of Common Stock owned  beneficially  by each of the Selling
Stockholders  as of  September  2, 1997,  and the number of shares  which may be
offered  for resale  pursuant  to this  Prospectus  regardless  of whether  such
Selling  Stockholder  has  a  present  intent  to  sell.  For  the  purposes  of
calculating  the  number of shares of  Common  Stock  beneficially  owned by the
Selling  Stockholders  holding  Preferred  Stock, the number of shares of Common
Stock  calculated  to be  issuable  in  connection  with the  conversion  of the
Preferred  Stock is based  on a  conversion  price of  $2.1875  per  share.  The
calculation  of the total  number of shares of Common Stock to be offered by the
holders of such Preferred Stock, however, is an estimate based on a hypothetical
conversion  at the price set forth in the  preceding  sentence,  which  price is
below the closing  market  price of the Common  Stock as of  October 3, 1997,
which price is $5.6875.  If the $5.6875 per share price were used instead of the
per share prices  listed  above,  the number of shares of Common Stock  issuable
upon  conversion  of the  Preferred  Stock would  decrease to a total of 879,121
shares. The registration  statement of which this Prospectus is a part includes,
in accordance with Rule 416 of the 1933 Act, an  indeterminate  number of shares
issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock as a result of the floating rate
conversion features thereof.  The use of such hypothetical  conversion prices is
not intended,  and should in no way be construed,  to constitute a prediction as
to the future market price of the Common Stock.

         The information  included below is based upon  information  provided by
the Selling  Stockholders.  Because the Selling Stockholders may offer all, some
or none of their shares of Common Stock,  no definite  estimate as to the number
of shares  thereof  that will be held by the  Selling  Stockholders  after  such
offering  can be  provided  and the  following  table has been  prepared  on the
assumption  that the  conversion  price is $2.1875 and that all shares of Common
Stock offered under this Prospectus will be sold.

(1) Unless  otherwise  indicated in the footnotes to this table, the persons and
entities  named in the table  have sole  voting and sole  investment  power with
respect to all shares beneficially owned.

(2) Each of the designated Selling  Stockholders holds shares of Preferred Stock
which are convertible into shares of Common Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock
may be converted into a number of shares of Common Stock,  at the option of each
selling  Stockholder,  at a  conversion  price  equal to the lesser of $5.05 per
share  (the  "Fixed  Conversion  Price") or eighty  percent  (80%) of the volume
weighted average fifteen day trading price preceding the date of conversion. The
number of shares of Common  Stock  being  offered  by each  Selling  Stockholder
(except for the shares of Common  Stock  described in footnote 3 below) is based
on shares issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock at a conversion  price
of $2.1875. As the conversion price is variable, the actual numbers of shares to
be sold by each designated Selling Stockholder may be substantially more or less
than the number of shares indicated in the table. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
each listed Selling  Stockholder can convert into shares of Common Stock only to
the extent that the number of shares issued thereby, combined with the number of
shares of Common Stock held by such Selling  Stockholder,  would not exceed 4.9%
of the then  outstanding  Common Stock,  as  determined in accordance  with Rule
13d-3 of the 1934 Act.  Accordingly,  the  number of shares of Common  Stock set
forth in the table for certain of the Selling Stockholders exceeds the number of
shares of  Common  Stock  that they  could  beneficially  own at any given  time
through their ownership of Preferred Stock. In that regard, beneficial ownership
of those  Selling  Stockholders  set  forth in the  table is not  determined  in
accordance with Rule 13d-3.  Pursuant to a securities  purchase  agreement,  the
Company agreed

to register the shares of Common Stock at its cost to remove the  restriction on
free  transferability.  The Company has no knowledge as to when or if any of the
Selling  Stockholders  will convert any of their  shares of  Preferred  Stock or
desire to offer  shares of Common Stock upon such  conversion  for sale upon the
open market once  registration is completed.  For a complete  description of the
rights of holders of Preferred  Stock,  see the  Certificate  of  Designation of
Series A Convertible  Preferred Stock of the Company and the related  Securities
Purchase  Agreement (with exhibits) filed as an exhibit to the Company's Current
Report on Form 8-K dated July 21,  1997 as amended by the Form 8-K/A  dated July
21, 1997.

(3) Swartz  Investments,  LLC received  36,580 shares of Common Stock as partial
consideration for arranging the sale of the Preferred Stock.

                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

         The Company is  registering  the shares of Common Stock  offered by the
Selling Stockholders hereunder pursuant to contractual registration rights.

         The shares of Common Stock  offered  hereunder may be sold from time to
time by the Selling Stockholders,  or by pledgees,  donees, transferees or other
successors in interest.  Such sales may be made on the New York Stock  Exchange,
on any exchange or market on which the Common  Stock is listed for  trading,  in
the over-the-counter  market, in privately negotiated  transactions or otherwise
at prices and on terms then  prevailing  or related to the then  current  market
price, or such other prices as the Selling  Stockholders  determine from time to
time.  The  shares  of  Common  Stock  may be  sold  to or  through  one or more
broker-dealers,  acting as agent or principal in underwritten  offerings,  block
trades, agency placements,  exchange  distributions,  brokerage  transactions or
otherwise,  or in any  combination of  transactions.  The shares of Common Stock
hereunder may be used to settle short sales of Common Stock or options held by a
selling Stockholder.

         In  connection  with  any  transaction   involving  the  Common  Stock,
broker-dealers or others may receive from the Selling  Stockholders,  and may in
turn  pay to  other  broker-dealers  or  others,  compensation  in the  form  of
commissions,  discounts or  concessions in amounts to be negotiated at the time.
Broker-dealers  and any other persons  participating  in a  distribution  of the
Common Stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Act in
connection  with  such  distribution,  and any such  commissions,  discounts  or
concessions may be deemed to be underwriting  discounts or commissions under the
1933 Act.

         Any and all of the sales or other  transactions  involving  the  Common
Stock described above, whether effected by the Selling Stockholders,  any broker
dealer or others,  may be made  pursuant to this  Prospectus.  In addition,  any
shares of Common Stock that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the 1933
Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than  pursuant to this  Prospectus.  There
can be no  assurances  that all or any of the  shares  of Common  Stock  offered
hereby will be issued to, or sold by, the Selling Stockholders.

         To comply with the securities  laws of certain  states,  if applicable,
the Common Stock may be sold in such  jurisdictions  only through  registered or
licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, shares of Common Stock may not be sold
unless they have been registered or qualified

                                       13

for sale or an exemption from  registration  or  qualification  requirements  is
available and is complied with under applicable state securities laws.


                                       14

         The Company and the Selling Stockholders have agreed, and hereafter may
further  agree,  to  indemnify  each  other  and  certain   persons,   including
broker-dealers  or others,  against  certain  liabilities in connection with any
offering of the Common Stock, including liabilities arising under the Act.

                                  LEGAL MATTERS

                  Certain  legal  matters will be passed upon for the Company by
Kane, Russell, Coleman & Logan, P.C., Dallas, Texas.

                                     EXPERTS

by  reference  to the Annual  Report on Form 10-K of  Intellicall,  Inc. for the
