Vintage Limited Edition Heineken Jazz Festival Pin SNC Enamel Badge
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This promotional pin features a black silhouette of a musician playing the saxophone, surrounded by a stylized light blue cloud. The inscription "HEINEKEN S.N.C. JAZZ FESTIVAL" is clearly visible on the front, with "HEINEKEN S.N.C." in green letters and "JAZZ FESTIVAL" in black and green, all on a shiny metallic-looking background. The design features a dynamic cut-out shape, typical of promotional pins from music festivals, and highlights the association of the Heineken brand with the world of jazz.
The visible surface of the pin displays multi-colored enamel, alternating black, green, and light blue, creating a strong contrast and good legibility of the inscriptions. The finish of the front is smooth and shiny, with visible metallic outlines that highlight each color zone. The musician's silhouette, stylized yet recognizable, evokes the atmosphere of jazz festivals, while the meticulous lettering reflects the care taken in the brand's event communication.
A slight patina is observed on the visible metallic parts, indicating some age or past use, with no major visible defects on the front. No chips or noticeable scratches are identifiable on the enamel or metal on the front. The pin is displayed upright, allowing its irregular shape, contrasting colors, and sharp graphics to be appreciated.
This promotional badge is typical of promotional items distributed at music events sponsored by major brands in the 1990s. Its graphic style, colorful enameling, and explicit reference to Heineken and jazz make it an iconic communication medium for collectors of festival souvenirs or vintage objects related to music and beer.
