Vintage pennant A.S. Aixoise football retro red yellow stripes
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This football pennant features a classic triangular shape, characteristic of sports memorabilia from past decades. It is adorned with vertical red and yellow stripes and a decorative gold fringe all around. The upper part of the pennant displays the inscription "A.S. AIXOISE" in white capital letters on a blue background, perfectly legible and positioned on a rectangular band. In the center of the lower part, a stylized blue and white football is printed, reinforcing the visual identity of the club.
The pennant is suspended by a twisted yellow cord, attached to a wooden rod visible at the ends. This rod, with two sculpted tips, helps keep the pennant taut and ensures a stable presentation. The whole set has a retro look, typical of supporter accessories of French football clubs, probably from the 1970s-1980s, although the precise era cannot be confirmed without further evidence.
The surface has a satin appearance, accentuating the vivid colors and the sheen of the motif. The red and yellow stripes immediately evoke the traditional colors of A.S. Aixoise, the emblematic club of Aix-en-Provence. The dense and regular gold fringe outlines the pennant and adds a decorative touch true to this type of object.
The visible side does not show any additional inscriptions or markings other than those mentioned. The manufacturing and finish are typical of pennants distributed during exchanges between clubs or at sporting events, used to decorate changing rooms, display cases, or the offices of directors and coaches.
The pennant is presented on a wooden background, which highlights the vibrancy of its colors and allows for observation of the item's general condition. No major defects, tears, or stains are visible on the exposed side; a slight deformation of the surface at the bottom of the pennant is noticeable, without affecting the legibility or integrity of the object.
Condition
Used item, sold as is. The visible side is in good overall condition with slight marks of use consistent with the age and use of this type of object.
