Summary:
"See the 85-year
history
of the
World
Cup
as never before: through
100
iconic
objects
associated with the game. This fabulous photographic
history
boasts the most fascinating collection of artifacts from the FIFA
World
Cup
. The
100
objects
include: the ball used in the final of the very first
tournament
; the collar of Pickles the dog (who found the stolen FIFA
World
Cup
trophy in 1966); the shirt Bobby Moore gave to Pelé in the 1970 finals and the one Diego Maradona wore when he scored his infamous “Hand of God” goal; the infamous, controversial vuvuzela; and the scoreboard that registered Brazil’s calamitous defeat to Germany. Entertaining text by a recognized soccer authority and supplementary photos put each item in context and highlight its significance. Every item tells a rich and fascinating story. Produced in association with the British National
Football
Museum and the official FIFA collection."--From publisher.
