Los álbumes de cromos de fútbol. Un negocio, una realidad social, una pasión coleccionista y unos artefactos de la memoria / Football-soccer stickers albums. A business, a social reality, a collector´s passion and artifacts of memory.

This text, based on the characteristics of the Topic Review as a typology of research article and supported by Content Analysis —a key method in current communication and documentation studies— presents the results of this review and analysis for a topic that has been little investigated until now in the academic and scientific field in relation to football-soccer: the collecting of sticker albums (figures, figurines, sheets, etc.). This type of collecting has multiple implications, considering business, social reality, collecting passion, and memory artifacts. As a result, we present the selection of more than 120 relevant contents (documents, news, websites, social networks) that highlight the importance of this practice. These contents demonstrate how collecting sticker albums is also fundamental to understanding football-soccer in its imaginaries, and in their historical, economic, power and communication relations. *Link English version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O3wqajIdkrMHDJUxFXpf6IHV0y5uHtnI/view
