This rare, commemorative lapel pin was issued in 1987 to celebrate the 75th anniversary of FILA (now known as United World Wrestling).

This specific version was designated for an International Judge-Referee (Juge-Arbitre International), making it a highly specialized piece of wrestling officiating history. The pin features a deep blue enamel background, gold-tone laurel wreath, a dual-hemisphere globe, and the "FILA" acronym.

"75 ème ANNIVERSAIRE" / "1912-1987" / "FILA" / "JUGE-ARBITRE INTERNATIONAL" on the bottom which translates to

"International judge referee" indicating an official and high ranking position within the federation.

Excellent vintage condition with vibrant enamel and minor age-related patina on the gold-tone edges.

Please see photos for exact detail.

Why this is a must-have:

FILA rebranded to United World Wrestling (UWW) in 2014, making these original FILA-branded official's pins increasingly difficult to find. It is a perfect addition for collectors of Olympic sports memorabilia, wrestling historians, or refereeing enthusiasts.
