AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old advertising keychain, with a vintage look, consisting of a metal ring and a rectangular pendant with rounded corners. The pendant features a transparent window revealing a graphic illustration of an old car, typical of early 20th century automobile models. The drawing is monochrome, black on a light background, evoking a retro and refined style. The whole is simple, with a short chain connecting the ring to the pendant.

The visible surface of the keychain shows a slightly satin finish, with reflections characteristic of advertising objects from the second half of the 20th century. The contours of the pendant are clean, without additional patterns. The metal attachment ring, of classic circular shape, is attached to a short link metal chain, typical of utilitarian keychains of that period.

The illustration of the old vehicle, probably a "fiacre" or "torpedo" type automobile, reinforces the retro aspect of this keychain. No brand marking or promotional mention is visible on the presented side. The object has a generic advertising appearance, often used by companies for promotional campaigns in the 60s-70s.

The patina of the object, as well as the slight wear visible on the ring, attest to its age and authenticity. The plastic of the pendant maintains good transparency, without significant yellowing or apparent cracks on the presented side.

This keychain is typical of vintage promotional items, often collected for their graphics and their evocation of a bygone era of advertising and automobiles.
