UNAF Retro Enameled Football Pin – 80s-90s Vintage Football Badge

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Visual description

This pin has a rectangular shape with straight edges and a slightly textured surface, typical of advertising or association badges from the late 20th century. On the front, the design consists of the inscription "UNAF" where the letters "UN" are in blue and "AF" in red, separated by a stylized black and white soccer ball. The background of the pin has a coppery or bronze tone, with a shiny finish but marked by visible signs of wear, including scratches and some surface irregularities, testifying to its age.

The overall appearance is retro, reinforced by the graphics of the ball and the choice of typography, characteristic of promotional materials from the 1980s to 1990s. The fastener visible behind the plate suggests a classic pin-back, although only the front is photographed. The edge of the pin has a thin metallic border, with a patina that accentuates its vintage character.

The main colors are blue, red, white, and black, on a metallic-looking background. No other patterns, logos, or text are discernible on the visible face.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The front shows signs of use, small scratches, and traces of oxidation or patina, without major missing parts or visible chips.
