Vintage Olympic Marseille OM Panasonic retro football player pin
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This pin features a stylized football player, wearing the historic Olympique de Marseille jersey. The badge is cut out following the silhouette of the player's bust, with a face drawn with strong features and chestnut hair. The outfit is primarily white, adorned with sky blue stripes on the left shoulder and the OM logo on the right side of the chest. The name "Panasonic", an iconic sponsor of the club in the late 1980s and early 1990s, clearly appears in blue on the central part of the jersey.
The pin's surface has a smooth enameled appearance, with clear colors and well-defined black outlines. The entire visual is highlighted by a metallic border which accentuates the quality of the finish. This badge is typical of promotional or sports souvenir productions distributed during major competitions or significant seasons of the club.
The illustration of the player adopts a retro graphic style, characteristic of advertising objects from the late 20th century. The details of the face, although schematic, are precise enough to evoke the aesthetic of pins from that era, without identifying a specific player.
The OM logo is faithfully represented, with its intertwined letters and the star above, confirming the visual authenticity of the object for football enthusiasts and collectors of Olympique de Marseille memorabilia. The "Panasonic" mention in blue on a white background is perfectly legible and matches the traditional colors of the Marseille club.
The general condition visible in the photo appears good, with no chips or major scratches on the front. The shine of the enamel and the sharpness of the patterns indicate a well-preserved pin. No noticeable defects appear on the exposed surface.
