AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Vintage commemorative pin depicting the Stade Vélodrome, an iconic football stadium in Marseille. The design features a stylized pitch on a green background, with clear signage: "STADE VELODROME" at the top and the date "21 DEC. 91" inscribed in the center of the pitch. This pin pays tribute to the match between Marseille and Caen, with the final score "MARSEILLE 5 CAEN 0" at the bottom, highlighting Marseille's victory. Five small footballs are aligned on the right side of the pitch, symbolizing the five goals scored by Olympique de Marseille during this historic match.

The rectangular shape topped with an arc is reminiscent of stadium signs from the 90s. The entire piece is bordered by a light trim, which contrasts with the green of the pitch and the black typography. The object features a smooth and shiny finish on the visible side, typical of enameled pins from that period.

The inscriptions are perfectly legible and the colors remain vibrant, with a dominant green, white, and black. No manufacturer's logo is visible on the front. The fastener or reverse side are not visible in this image. This pin stands out for its simple and evocative graphics, faithful to the aesthetic of supporter accessories from the early 1990s.

The pin is presented on a beige velvet support, which highlights the object without being part of it. A slight patina is observed on the light edges, consistent with vintage use, with no apparent chips or major scratches on the photographed side.

This type of pin was frequently issued to mark major sporting events or remarkable victories, and remains a tangible testament to the history of French football and OM.
