In italy we don't have cards. We have the "figurine", they are stickers you stick onto an "album", who contains all of the Serie A soccer players.
It happens the sticker (figurina) I needed to complete my 84/85 Calciatori album lives near me, in Genova.
Enrico Nicolini is my Billy Jo Robidoux, I meet him in the street and ten years old me shows up every time.
