Vintage advertising pin limited edition 80s retro calendar

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage advertising pin stands out with its rectangular shape and a design inspired by a retro school calendar. On the visible surface, there is a graphic representation of a weekly planner, typical of the 1980s, with "Mercredi" (Wednesday) at the top left and a succession of colored green and pink boxes, evoking the organization of a schedule. The inscriptions and details are clear, with period typography and contrasting graphic elements, giving the object a decidedly retro style.

The pin features a glossy finish on the front, suggesting an enameled or lacquered surface, although the precise material cannot be confirmed in the absence of explicit mention. The edges are outlined by a metallic-looking frame, accentuating the promotional and advertising nature of the object. The visible colors – green, pink, yellow, black – contribute to the vintage effect and the visual appeal of this pin, which stands out for its 80s-typical graphics.

The arrangement of text and graphics, as well as the general style, suggest a limited edition designed to promote an event or service related to organization or the school world. No brand logo is identifiable on the visible side, but the careful design and originality of the motif suggest quality manufacturing, typical of advertising objects distributed in limited editions at that time.

The pin is photographed resting on a pink velvet-look box, with a decorative gold trim, surrounded by an LED light garland, accentuating its decorative and collectible aspect. No attachment elements or markings on the back are visible in this image.

Condition

Second-hand item sold as-is. The visible front face appears to be in good overall condition, without apparent chips or scratches, but slight traces of use or patina may be present, consistent with the age of the object.
