Here you can see all covers of Calciatori Panini albums.
Panini stickers where founded from Panini brothers (Giuseppe, Benito, Umberto
and Franco) in the early 60s. First album was published in 1961/62. On the
cover you can see former Milan player Nils Liedholm. First printed sticker was
of Inter player Bruno Bolchi. Since then Calciatori Panini albums come out
regularly every year.
1963/64 edition of album is first one with Serie B
players. Two players on one sticker. In later editions of album we can also see
team stickers for lower leagues of Italian football. One of the best cover is
of album from 1982/83 where they pay tribute to Italy 1982 WC title.
Calciatori 2006/07 is a kind of unique album in history.
Both Serie A and Serie B had same size of stickers. Reason is because Serie B
had several great teams: Juventus, Napoli, Genoa. There where also updates for
Serie B teams. Also lot of collectors are disappointed of the cover of album.
Panini should proudce cover with tribute to Italy 2006 WC title just like they
did in 1982/83.
The official logo of the collection is former Juventus defender
Carlo Parola. The symbol is inspired by him in the athletic movement in a match
against Fiorentina in 1950 when he kicked the ball out of his area. He was on
the several covers of Calciatori albums.
Francesco Totti is the player who has made most
appearances on the Calciatori covers. While Paolo Maldini has been printed in
most editions of the album (24 times).
