AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old advertising pin, most likely dating from 1987, as indicated by the clear inscription on the front. This badge has a slightly rectangular shape with rounded corners, typical of promotional pins distributed at events or campaigns in the 80s.

The visible side is decorated with a two-tone motif: one blue half and one light green half, separated by a white diagonal. A geometric logo, consisting of a green triangle and a white figure, occupies the upper part. Several inscriptions are visible, including "1987" in the upper right and other partially decipherable texts, probably related to the event or the promoting organization.

The surface of the pin has an enameled appearance, with a shiny and smooth effect characteristic of this type of advertising object from the 80s. There is period wear, particularly on the edges and in the enamel, indicating prolonged use or storage. The colors remain clearly visible despite slight traces of oxidation or tarnishing on the metal rim.

This pin is presented in a white textile surface case (not included), which highlights its retro appearance and emphasizes its decorative potential. No reverse is visible in the photo; only the front and part of the edge are observable.

Enameled badges of this type were often used for the promotion of companies, sporting or cultural events, or as loyalty items at the end of the 20th century. Their graphic style and color palette are typical of 1980s production.
