AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This vintage promotional pin features a rectangular shape with a rounded end, characteristic of promotional designs from the 1980s-1990s. On the front, it displays a pale yellow background with a stylized inscription: "transatelgros itools" (text in rounded letters, difficult to read but identifiable), accompanied by a graphic logo composed of two interlocking green and red arcs on a yellow background. The whole evokes a retro design, typical of corporate communication materials from that period.

The visible surface has a smooth and shiny appearance, suggesting an enamelled or lacquered finish, without being able to specify the exact material in the absence of indication in the keywords. The outline of the pin is light-colored, while the inscription and logo are in relief, with good graphic definition. No other pattern or decorative element is present on this side.

The badge is photographed on a red fabric, highlighting its colors and graphic style. The quality of the printing and the contrast of the colors are reminiscent of promotional items intended for brand or company promotion at trade shows or as corporate gifts.

The object does not show any attachment or visible mechanism in this photo, in accordance with strictly frontal observation instructions. No major defects are observable on the front, except for a slight patina that enhances the retro look sought by lovers of old advertising items.

This promotional pin is a representative example of the aesthetics of the 80s, with its vibrant colors and stylized graphics. It is aimed at those who appreciate retro graphic design and authentic promotional items from that era.
