Vintage enamel football pin from Amicale Sportive St Seurin, green, old crest

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This old pin badge represents the Amicale Sportive de Saint-Seurin, a local football club, identifiable by the circular inscription "AMICALE SPORTIVE ST SEURIN S/ LISLE" on a vibrant green background. The item has a classic round shape, with a shiny metallic outline and a domed, enamelled surface. In the center, a detailed coat of arms stands out against a white background, illustrating a heraldic lion and a composition of red, blue, and white colors, typical of French regional sports clubs' emblems.

The glossy finish highlights the vintage graphic design and contrasting colors: the green background, the silver outline, and the hues of the central emblem. The inscription remains clearly legible on the upper part of the pin, while the lower part shows some visible signs of wear, particularly on certain letters where the enamel appears to have been partially erased by time. The overall look offers a retro feel, true to the productions of the 1980s-1990s, a period when this type of pin was common at sporting events and local tournaments.

The pin stands out with an aesthetic typical of promotional items or souvenirs distributed to members, supporters, or participants of amateur football clubs in France. The rounded typography and the style of the emblem evoke the associative spirit and conviviality of local sports. The item is photographed from the front, revealing the entire decoration and the quality of the enamelled surface, without the possibility of describing the back or the fastening system, which are not visible in the image.

Some signs of age are noticeable on the metallic rim, as well as slight irregularities in the shine of the coating, confirming the authenticity of a vintage pin. The overall appearance remains attractive for a piece of this type, despite the signs of use on the lower part of the design.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Localized signs of wear on the enamel, particularly in the lower part of the inscription. Shiny surface with slight marks related to age and handling.

Did you know? Enamel pins were very popular in French sports clubs in the 80s and 90s, serving both as a badge of belonging and a souvenir at tournaments or local events. Amicale Sportive de St Seurin is one of these clubs that perpetuate the tradition of amateur football in Gironde.
