When Kartik Krishnaiyer visited me recently to spend some time researching his upcoming book on Florida history, he also brought a treasure trove of soccer collectibles to share. One was the completed album of Euro 2020 stickers that Panini issued this year. More impressively was his completed collection of Topps Bundesliga sticker albums from the 2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21 seasons.
Considering that neither the Euro 2020 nor Topps Bundesliga stickers were officially available for purchase in the United States, I’m still astonished he has been able to finish all of them.
With the added bonus of many young Americans being featured in the albums, these certainly are collector’s items. Kartik, we’re jealous of you mate.
