Description from the seller

Splendid Vintage Collection of Badges, Pins and Sport Medals (Focus on Tennis and Italian Sport)

We propose at auction a rich and varied lot of over 30 pieces among pins, badges and medals of great historical and collectible interest, predominantly focused on the world of Italian Tennis (FIT) and national sports institutions.
An unmissable opportunity for sports memorabilia collectors, officials (referees) or enthusiasts of Italian sports history.
Lot details:
Federation Italiana Tennis (FIT): The heart of the collection. Includes numerous enameled pins of the FIT logo in several variants, including rare pieces reserved for officials, such as the "Referee" pins, and a large enameled pin bearing the inscription "FIT - Comitato Regionale Lazio - UFFICIALE DI GARA". There are also square pins from the Lazio Regional Committee.
CONI / Merito Sportivo: A beautiful original CONI (Comitato Olimpico Nazionale Italiano) Star Medal with intact light-blue ribbon stands out. Accompanying it is a lapel badge "Al Merito Sportivo" in the shape of a golden star.
International Events and ATP: A rare enameled pin from the professional ATP Tour circuit is present, along with several refined gold-toned pins in the shape of a tennis racket (solo and crossed).
Italia '90: Included are two iconic enameled badges depicting "Ciao", the famous tricolor mascot of the 1990 FIFA World Cup in Italy. Pieces highly sought after by football collectors.
Various and International Motifs: The lot is completed by pins with enameled crossed flags (Italy-USA, Italy-Sweden), an elegant tricolor tie pin "Italia", a commemorative pin from Sabaudia and other classic/athletics-themed badges (laurel crowns, mythological figures).
Conditions:
The items are in excellent vintage condition. The enamel colors are vivid and well preserved. Being vintage items, they may show slight and normal signs of aging or a light patina on the back metal, which certifies their authenticity and historical charm (please closely observe the numerous attached photographs, which are an integral part of the description). The back closures (butterflies/clips) are present on almost all pieces.
Shipping:
The lot will be packed with utmost care and shipped via express courier with a tracking code to ensure fast and secure delivery worldwide."
