I started collecting vintage soccer this spring. Fisrt thing I did was start researching players, and discovered Ricardo Zamora. Zamora is the goalie in the white sweater. The Spanish league’s yearly trophy is named for him. Kinda like Cy Young.

The 1920s era cards are beautiful, mostly paintings like baseball tobacco. Almost all of them were issued with chocolates. This set has 8 players with 18 cards each making a puzzle. I purchased the entire set. These are the first cards made for Barcelona.

Jaime Boix actually made a similar set of world leaders, the Woodrow Wilson is cool.
