AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

An old advertising keychain, commemorating the centenary of the Ligue de l'Enseignement (1866-1966), visible on the main side. The accessory has an oval shape with rounded edges, with a transparent surface revealing a blue inner plate. On this plate, the text "Centenaire de la ligue de l'Enseignement" and the dates "1866-1966" are clearly legible, accompanied by a stylized logo depicting two figures dancing around a tree, typical of 20th-century French associative iconography.

The assembly is connected by a small metal link chain to a split ring of the carabiner type, characteristic of 1960s keychains. The keychain has a glossy finish, with a translucent effect on the frame, which highlights the central motif and protects it from superficial scratches.

The vivid blue background contrasts with the white of the logo and inscriptions, offering good readability and a retro graphic style. The contours are sharp, without superfluous decoration, which emphasizes the institutional and commemorative aspect of the object. No other motif or text is visible on this side.

The overall condition, according to the photo, shows a clean and shiny surface, with no visible chips or cracks. The metal part appears complete and functional, with no obvious signs of rust or deformation. The chain and clasp appear original.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The item shows minor signs of use compatible with a vintage accessory, but no major defects are visible on the photographed side.

Did you know? The Ligue de l'Enseignement, founded in 1866, is one of the oldest French secular associations, working for access to education and the promotion of republican values.
