The visible side features a stylized silhouette of the African continent in yellow, with the inscriptions \"LE CAP 1993\" in capital letters. In the foreground, a motorcyclist in blue and red attire, riding a red motorcycle, is depicted, a detail highlighted by the colored enamel work characteristic of 90s pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lower part of the pin features a golden rectangular plate, on which the inscription \"cer\" is written in black, framed by two red arrows. The whole evokes a rally-raid aesthetic, probably in reference to a car or motorcycle event connecting France to South Africa, via Cape Town, which echoes the tradition of the great African rallies of that period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe golden finish, visible on the rim and base, gives the object a bright metallic appearance. The main colors are bright yellow, blue, red, and black, offering a sharp contrast and optimal legibility of the motifs and inscriptions. The enamel work appears precise, with no apparent overflows on the photographed side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pin exhibits a style typical of 1990s advertising production, recognizable by its simplified lines and the use of bold colors. No major defects are visible on the front; however, the surface shows some slight signs of wear consistent with pre-owned use, notably a slight patina on the gilding, without apparent chips or deep scratches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-owned item, sold as is.
