Lot of 10 vintage retro advertising enamel badges All My Children Daim
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This lot includes ten old advertising pins, visible in the photo, featuring a wide variety of shapes, colors, and themes. Each badge displays a distinct design, often in relief with an enamel finish, typical of promotional productions from the 1980s-1990s. Several pins sport vibrant colors, gilded details, and the characteristic shine of enamel, with representations ranging from company logos to illustrative mascots.
Among the identifiable models, we notice an "All My Children" pin in the shape of a red and gold book, a "Daim" badge on a red background, a lipstick-shaped pin, as well as a pin-up style female figure associated with the word "Lucky". Other examples evoke various themes: a stylized animal, a reference to "Château Bellevue", a globe with the inscription "Nordisk Film", and a stylized house.
The graphics are crisp, with perfectly legible inscriptions on some models ("All My Children", "Daim", "Nordisk Film", "Château Bellevue", "Lucky"). The contours of the pins are well-defined, each piece displaying a distinct visual identity: some are oval, others rectangular, or cut according to the silhouette of the represented motif.
Most badges have a golden or silver metallic border, enhancing the luminous effect of the enamel. The overall visible condition shows good preservation, with no major signs of oxidation or chips on the photographed sides. Some micro-scratches or slight traces of use may be present, consistent with the age and previous use of these promotional items.
This lot is ideal for illustrating the diversity of vintage advertising pins, with a range of themes that bear witness to the graphic inventiveness of manufacturers from the late 20th century. Each badge has a pin on the back (not visible here), typical of this type of object, allowing for easy wear on clothing or textile accessories.

Did you know? The advertising pin reached its peak in France in the 1980s-1990s, a period during which many brands, media, and cultural events issued their own models for loyalty or visibility campaigns. Some pins, such as those from television series ("All My Children"), quickly became emblematic and sought-after items for their iconic value.
