What makes this project so special?

Collaborations with various media and photographers from the region and across Switzerland to provide the highest quality illustrations. Dozens of hours of interviews with former players, officials, and even fans of the clubs concerned. All this to serve you on a platter a unique, verified, and precise synthesis of this remarkable history!

What will your support be used for?

This nearly 300-page book has already been fully written by Nicolas Bandelier, the posters are ready to go, but we are still missing CHF 10,000 to ensure it goes to print. If we reach the second goal of 16,000, you are guaranteed to find your ordered copy under the Christmas tree in 2025. A third goal beyond that would allow us to partially cover the many costs already invested in this project. So don’t hesitate to break your piggy bank – it’s for a very good cause. A thousand thanks!
