Vintage enamel mascot ambulance pin, limited edition, Romania flag

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This lot consists of two vintage advertising pins, visible in the photograph. The first pin features a blue, yellow, and red tricolor flag, reminiscent of the Romanian flag, with the legible inscription "LIBERTATE TINERETULUI SATU" on the lower part. The flag has a shiny enamel finish and golden borders, as well as a central circular hole, characteristic of some commemorative or event-related models.

The second pin displays a stylized ambulance, designed as a smiling mascot, with vibrant colors: white, yellow, blue, and red. The vehicle is topped with a blue cap adorned with a red cross. The lower part of the pin has a white area with a stylized handwritten inscription, difficult to decipher precisely but clearly visible in the photo.

Both pins have a smooth and shiny enameled surface with visible metal borders, typical of 1990s advertising productions. The colors are bold, and the childlike graphic design of the ambulance suggests an awareness campaign or an event related to the medical or charitable sector.

The objects are photographed on a reflective red fabric, which highlights the brilliance of the enamel and the details of the design. No major defects are visible on the front: the outlines are sharp, the colors are well-preserved, and no noticeable scratches appear on the visible part.

Condition

These pins are used and sold as-is. The visible faces are in very good general condition, with no apparent defects in the photo.

Did you know? Pins became a very popular communication and promotional medium in Europe in the 1980s-1990s, used during events, charitable campaigns, or to mark historical moments. The Romanian flag with the inscription "LIBERTATE" refers to the post-1989 revolution period, where the flag was often presented with a hole in the center, symbolizing the removal of the communist emblem.
