Panini 1970 World Cup sticker book completed after 56 years
The Guardian
|May 18, 2026
Last week, Stephen Butler completed a collection that he started almost 60 years ago. With the final piece in place it’s now worth thousands of pounds.
The completed sticker book
Butler was moving house five years ago when he stumbled across a box in the loft that he had not thought about in years.
Inside was his old school cap, some exercise books, photos and, in the middle of it all, a 1970 Panini World Cup sticker book. “It brought back an awful lot of memories,” said Butler, 69.
The 1970 World Cup meant everything to Butler at the time. He was a 13-year-old boy in the Ribble Valley, Lancashire, watching England play in Mexico City. They had entered the tournament as cup holders, having beaten West Germany in the 1966 finals. “It was in colour, it was live, it was the other side of the world. So when Dad bought the colour television I thought bloody hell, bring on the school holidays.”

The twilight zone World Cup from afar is a blur of ambient noise, ghostly voices and Steph Houghton
I fell asleep at some point during the Netherlands v Japan game. It had been a hot and drowsy day by the shores of Lake Annecy, a square and heavy heat, where the sun and the driving and the food and the boxed wine gently squeeze all the life from your body, like air being pressed out of a juice carton.
