AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Advertising pin featuring a stylized character, associated with the Aquacity universe, clearly identifiable on the front by the inscription "AQUACITY" in yellow capital letters on a black background. The pin depicts an anthropomorphic character silhouette, with a naive and humorous design, featuring a blue-grey body, a yellow head and hand, and a black outline that highlights the whole. This graphic style evokes the promotional creations of the 1990s, common in water parks or leisure centers of the time.
The visible surface shows a smooth enameled finish, typical of pins from this period, with bold colors and a clear demarcation between each color area. The inscription "AQUACITY" spans the entire width of the base, enhancing the legibility and advertising effect of the object. The pin's shape follows the contours of the character, without a classic rectangular frame, reinforcing its original and attractive appearance.
The overall design is well-preserved: the paint remains vibrant, with no chips or significant visible alterations on the front. No significant visual defects are observable in the photographed area. The pin is presented upright, highlighted against a light velvet background, which brings out the colors and brilliance of the piece. No fastening system is visible in the photo, in accordance with the presented angle.
The graphic style, the inscription, and the color palette clearly evoke a 1990s production, a period when this type of advertising pin was particularly common in France and Europe, especially for water parks or leisure events.
This advertising badge, also called a lapel pin or pin badge, stands out for its humorous visual and its relative rarity, linked to the Aquacity brand.
