| Most of my shirts I got from a good Italian friend who has several personal contacts to players, kit workers and club officials within Italy. But quite a few shirts I was able to get through many contacts to fellow soccer shirt collectors. Thanks to all of them who I had the pleasure to deal with in the past and who contibuted their part to my collection. |
|
| Almost half of the shirts I have are of AC Milan, my favourite club team of the late 80's and early 90's - especially due to the "dutch connection" around Marco Van Basten, Frank Rijkaard and Ruud Gullit. But there were other players as well that I loved to see - such as Franco Baresi, Paolo Maldini, Roberto Donadoni or Demetrio Albertini. |
| Another big part of my collection contains several Italian Serie A clubs - such as Juventus, Inter Milan, SSC Napoli, AS Roma, SS Lazio and AC Parma. |
| Of course, there are other clubs as well which I was able to obtain during the past years: CF Barcelona, Real Madrid, Ajax Amsterdam, Arsenal London, Manchester United and Bayern Munich. |
| Further, a certain number of various European national team shirts can't be missed, of course. I mainly put my attention to teams like Holland, Italy and England. |
| Even though I don't have many connections within Switzerland, I try to obtain any Swiss club shirt I can, preferably of the 70's, 80's and 90's. |

| There is also a certain range of Swiss national team shirts in my collection, from the 70's until today - a must for a Swiss collector, of course. Not to mention that I'm proud having been able to get as well the storic World Cup 94 and EURO 96 shirts. What I couldn't get until now is neither the World Cup 2006 shirt nor the recent EURO 2008 shirt. Patience! |
| Last but not least, my collection wouldn't be complete without the shirts of the two most famouns South American teams: Brazil and Argentina, as well mainly of the 70's and 80's, but also some newer ones. |
| After the end of the "dutch era" there came a new generation, with other great players like Dejan Savicevic, Zvonimir Boban, Leonardo, Andriy Shevchenko, Andrea Pirlo, Rino Gattuso ... and still Paolo Maldini. |
