Description

This vintage magazine is an original copy of the famous sports periodical "France Football," dated October 8, 1996, number 2635, visible at the bottom of the cover. The front page features two prominent figures of French football, celebrating on the field, both wearing the blue jersey of the national team. The main title, "Never one without the other," highlights the importance of the duo, accompanied by a mention of the choice between Djorkaeff and Zidane, evoking a key moment in French football history of the 90s.

The cover features a clear photographic background, dominated by the blue, white, and red colors typical of the French national team, with illustrated insets at the bottom left: a photo of Franck Gava under the title "Lyon file droit" (Lyon heading straight) and an image of Arsène Wenger next to the Arsenal logo, with the mention "Arsenal à la Arsène" (Arsenal the Arsène way). A yellow banner at the top right announces "Scherrer: « Nantes va repartir ! »" (Scherrer: "Nantes will bounce back!"). The "France Football" logo appears at the top, with typography characteristic of this period.

This issue is printed on glossy magazine paper, with stapled binding visible on the left edge. The overall condition shows light signs of use: the cover has some folds and marks, particularly on the edges, but remains generally in good condition for a magazine of this era, with no major visible tears on the front side.

The bottom part of the cover explicitly states: "51e ANNÉE 8 OCTOBRE 1996 N° 2635" (51st YEAR OCTOBER 8, 1996 N° 2635), as well as the original price "12,00 F". The ISSN 0015-9557 is also legible, confirming the authenticity of this issue.
