Vintage US Friesen football goalkeeper pin old rectangular badge

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Antique rectangular pin, depicting a football scene. On the visible side, a colorful illustration shows a goalkeeper in action, lying on the grass, wearing a green and black striped jersey, trying to stop a red ball in front of a stylized net. The inscription "US FRIESEN" appears in capital letters in the upper part, on a light background. The outline of the pin has a silver metallic finish, with visible signs of wear and patina, typical of objects several decades old.

The surface of the pin has a slightly domed appearance, under a transparent protective layer that reveals some signs of age, including small scratches and slight discoloration on the edges. The central illustration is well preserved, with a marked contrast between the green of the field, the red of the ball, and the central character. The graphic style evokes productions from the 1970s to 1980s, with a simple and dynamic design, characteristic of advertising objects or sports souvenirs from that era.

This sports badge stands out for its rectangular format, less common than the round shapes usually found in the category of football club pins. The object is presented resting on a carved wooden furniture, but only the front face of the pin is visible in the photo.

The inscription "US FRIESEN" refers to a club or a sports association, probably located in France, this type of pin being frequently produced to commemorate regional teams or sporting events.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Presence of signs of wear, patina, small scratches and age-related marks, clearly visible on the metallic outline and the transparent surface. The illustration remains clear and legible.
