1958 Editora Aquarela "Brasil Campeão Mundial de Futebol" album, with twenty-four cards, produced to celebrate Brazil's first World Cup championship. The victory in Sweden introduced a 17-year-old Pelé to the world, as the young phenomenon scored six goals during the tournament, including two in Brazil's 5-2 triumph over the host nation in the final.
At the heart of the album is Pelé's coveted rookie card, preserved within its original presentation alongside the rest of Brazil's championship story. The cards present remarkably well and are far superior to most surviving examples of this fragile Brazilian issue. The album is in nice condition, and exhibits some age-related wear, including minor staining to the front and back covers. A rare and eye appealing assemblage.Album Brazil 1958
