FIRST SOCCER WORLD CUP
It was in 1930 when the First Soccer World Cup aroused, thereafter becoming the most important sport event on earth.
One emblem of that first championship was the book "ALBUM PRIMER CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL DE FOOTBALL" edited by Impresora Uruguaya S.A. at Montevideo, Uruguay.This work, published in 1930 in two languages, Spanish and French, (the latter the official language of F.I.F.A.), was directed by the writer Arturo Carbonell Debali, under the A.U.F. (Uruguayan Soccer Association), control. Its 123 wonderfully illustrated pages contain all the information about the progress of the First Soccer World Championship, not only the sport event but also the official, protocol and social activities.
Only 3000 copies of the first edition book were edited, and today only a few are known to be owned by collectors and are in good shape. It is indeed one of the most valued soccer books around the world.
Today, 70 years later, we revive that historical sport event, publishing two books: the first one, is the authorized second limited edition, replica of the original book "Album del Primer Campeonato Mundial de Football" of 1930. The second, is a complete catalog of the First Soccer World Cup Memorabilia which also includes a price guide of collectables. These two books are bounded in a wonderful case which desing is inspired in the their front covers.
