Hansons World Football Auction April 2025 - Wembley Stadium
Panini Mexico 1970 World Cup sticker album
This was the first debut album that started the worldwide Panini football sticker collecting craze.
The album from 1970 is in good condition and comes complete with all stickers. No writing has been added to the album and the staples are all secure.
The 1970 World Cup saw England arrive in Mexico as world champions. However, the magic of 1966 was not to be repeated, with England losing to Germany 3-2 in the quarter finals and not returning to the competition until 1982.
The album features legends of English football, including Bobby Moore, Gordon Banks, Bobby and Jack Charlton and international stars such as Germany’s Franz Beckenbauer, Portugal’s Eusébio and Pelé from 1970’s winning team, Brazil.
