Vintage Marius Ferrat golf 93 enameled pin, rare old badge

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

This vintage pin features a rectangular design predominantly light blue, adorned with a stylized golf scene. On the visible side, a silhouette of a golfer in motion, wearing a red top and blue trousers, is depicted against a green background evoking a golf course. The inscription "UNE EXPLOSION DE JOIE ET DE BONHEUR" (AN EXPLOSION OF JOY AND HAPPINESS) extends across the lower left, while the name "Marius Ferrat" appears in red letters at the bottom of the pin.

A blue circle marked with the number "93" is positioned in the upper part, emphasizing the event or commemorative nature of the badge. The outline of the pin has a shiny metallic appearance, probably a chrome or silver finish, without it being possible to confirm the exact material.

The whole is made of colored enamel, a technique commonly used for pins from the 1980s-1990s, which gives the piece a smooth and shiny appearance. The contrast between the blue background, the green of the course, and the red of the text offers immediate readability and a retro style typical of advertising or promotional accessories distributed during this period.

The visible side presents no additional inscriptions other than those described. There is slight wear on the metallic edges and small marks on the surface, signs of past use, without a major impact on the legibility or decorative aspect of the pin.

The typography and graphics, combined with the evocation of golf and the number "93", suggest an object designed for an event, a competition, or a promotion related to Marius Ferrat, a name that could designate a sponsor, a brand, or a personality from the sports or commercial world of that era.

Condition: Used item, sold as is. Visible signs of wear on the metallic border and discreet marks on the surface. The enamel retains its vibrant colors and the whole remains in good visual condition for a badge of this period.
