Hello Ian,

Thanks for your comments. I agree completely, there are literally thousands of these 70's and 80's Panini Album Calciatori scattered around Italy and your right most of them on Ebay are way over priced. Not to mention postage being very high as well. Don't know what it is with the Italian postal system people always talk about. Personally I have bought hundred's of items from Italy (Panini albums, stickers, DVD's etc) and never had an issue with items going missing. Maybe I've just been incredibly lucky!

Anyway they are a great investment particularly the pre-1980's albums. So far I only have two of these in my collection, one of them is the 1977-78 album that the previous owner had purchased a brand new cover directly from Panini and had this put onto the internal pages. Looks amazing like the day it came off the printing press, very lucky to have it and got it for a very reasonable price.

Look forward to hearing more from you about your collection.

Kind regards,

Nicholas
