Description

This old advertising pin depicts a stylized map of Finistère, topped with a white sail bearing the inscription "UNISYS" in red letters. The bottom of the pin features the raised inscription "TOUR DU FINISTÈRE 92" in gold, indicating an edition linked to the year 1992. The whole offers a sharp contrast between the blue of the map, the white of the sail, the red of the logo, and the gold relief. The bottom right part suggests a wave or terrain motif, reinforcing the regional identity and nautical theme.

The pin's shape is irregular, following the outline of the Finistère map, which gives it a distinctive and easily recognizable appearance for collectors of advertising or regional items. The item has a smooth and shiny finish, typical of enameled pins from the late 20th century, with well-preserved colors and sharp details on the visible side.

The "UNISYS" logo is clearly legible, as are all the inscriptions. This pin evokes the world of sports competitions or sponsored events from the early 1990s, with a characteristic retro aesthetic of that period. No information about the back is visible in the photo.

The item stands out for its relief craftsmanship, the apparent quality of its enamel, and the strong contrast between the different colored areas. The contours are sharp, without visible chips, and the whole presents a beautiful harmony of colors: blue, white, red, and gold.
