AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old, limited edition advertising pin, featuring the "ERM Louviers" logo. The item is a badge with an enameled appearance, in the shape of a stylized triangle with rounded edges, with a point facing upwards. The visible side is predominantly orange and blue, with golden outlines highlighting the lettering and the edge of the pin. The inscription "ERM" appears in orange capital letters on a blue background, while "LOUVIERS" is written in white on a blue banner at the bottom of the design.

The pin has a glossy finish that evokes enamel, typical of late 20th-century advertising manufacturing. The contrast between the bright blue and orange provides excellent legibility, enhanced by the golden border which adds a touch of elegance and highlights the logo. No other design or illustration is visible on the presented side.

The pin is photographed resting on a decorative purple stand, adorned with golden braids and pearls, but only the badge is included in this listing. The item appears to be in good visual condition, with no apparent defects or color loss on the visible side. No chips, scratches, or notable alterations are observable on this side.

This type of pin was commonly used for corporate or event communication, often distributed during promotional campaigns or local events. The general aesthetic and manufacturing technique evoke productions from the 1980s to the 1990s, a period when this advertising medium was particularly popular in France.

The lettering and graphic style of the logo are characteristic of retro design, with a strong influence from the visual codes of the 80s-90s. The badge has an easily recognizable shape, associated with the tradition of corporate pins and vintage advertising items.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible side is in good condition, with no major apparent defects.

Did you know? Advertising pins experienced a considerable boom in France from the 1980s onwards, becoming true communication and sometimes collectible items. The city of Louviers, mentioned on this badge, is located in Normandy and hosted many industrial and associative events during this period, which explains the presence of pins bearing its effigy.
