This is a rare and specific piece of 1980s international sports memorabilia: a promotional keychain for the 1985 World Games, held in London, England. This unique item was likely produced as a corporate promotion by "Pro-Specs," a brand associated with Taekwondo shoes and gear, linking the sponsor directly to the event.

Condition:
The keychain is in very good vintage condition. The acrylic is clear and unscratched, and the printing is vibrant with no fading. The metal ring is free of significant corrosion. It appears unused or lightly used.
