AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This old pin features a circular design, typical of promotional badges related to automotive and motorsport. The visible side has a cream background bordered by a shiny gold trim. In the center, a geometric motif includes a stylized green triangle evoking a fir tree or a mountain, accompanied by a stylized red helmet at the top and a black and gold checkerboard at the bottom left, reminiscent of a race finish flag. The inscriptions "ÉCURIE SAINT GIRONNAISE" in red capital letters adorn the upper part, while the mention "CLERMONT" appears at the bottom, also in red.

The outline of the pin highlights the whole with a lustrous golden effect, while the inner surface has a smooth and shiny enameled finish. All graphic and typographic elements are underlined by golden lines, providing a strong visual contrast and a retro touch characteristic of advertising objects from the 1980s to 1990s.

The typography used for the texts, wide and sans-serif, as well as the choice of bright colors (red, green, gold) are typical of promotional pins produced for sports clubs or automotive events of the late 20th century. The apparent condition, on the visible side, shows good preservation, with no major defects, scratches, or visible enamel loss on this side.

This pin badge, intended to be worn on clothing or an accessory, is a representative souvenir of the Écurie Saint Gironnaise and its activities in Clermont, probably in connection with local automotive competitions or gatherings. No additional markings, serial number, or manufacturer's mention are visible on the front.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The visible side shows good shine, with no notable wear, chips, or apparent tarnishing. The colors remain clear and the inscriptions perfectly legible.
