Nadine Jansen Las Vegas

The Challenge in another version. Yellow.


As we said the challenge was the ball which was played in 1966 World Cup in England. In this issue were used 3 different models, well the only thing that changed was the color. The officer was in orange (see England World article), but also played in yellow (like the one pictured) and white (next post). This model is characterized in that it consists of 18 slices of skin, but curiosity was that the middle segment of the 3 (which are in the same direction) was divided in two.

What Could Cauze Numness In Bouth Hands

The other ball of 1974 World Cup soccer players


With this beautiful ball, all white, also played the World Cup in 1974. Adidas thus launched two models for the event; Telstar Chile 1974 and 1974 (the photo). This model was made of genuine leather, as seen in photo (Cracked skin) and swelled with valve, like those of today. But if this ball was still absorbing rain water, something unthinkable with today.

Head Lice With Hair Extensions

First World


The photo shows a man who seems to be a football player from the early twentieth century. We say "seems" because of his clothing, a bit unsporting. But we do know is that the ball which is part of the first models of history. A ball made of 8 segments of skin that were joined at the two poles of the ball by a piece octagonal.
