AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Figurative pin depicting a football player in action, identifiable by the inscription as J.P. Papin, famous striker for Olympique de Marseille. The stylized silhouette shows a player wearing a blue jersey and light shorts, kicking a white ball adorned with gold details. The whole is encircled and highlighted by a brilliant gold outline, which enhances the vivid colours of the motif.
The lower part of the pin features a rectangular green base, on which the golden inscription: "J.P. PAPIN Champion de France 1992" appears. This mention refers to the season when Olympique de Marseille won the French football championship, with Jean-Pierre Papin as an emblematic figure of the team.
The pin's design is typical of the early 1990s, with its clean lines, bold colours, and simple yet expressive graphics. The finish has a smooth and glossy enameled appearance, accentuating the gilding on the entire outline and inscriptions.
The visible face shows no nicks or apparent chips; the surface appears well-preserved, with a homogeneous shine of the gilding and colours. No major defects are observable in the photographed area.
