{"product_id":"football-the-impossible-collection","title":"Football: The Impossible Collection","description":"\u003cp\u003eFootball. Fußball. Fútbol. The Beautiful Game. No sport has ever captured the human imagination quite so completely, or united so many millions across borders, languages, and generations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFootball: The Impossible Collection distills the sport into 100 defining moments, not simply the greatest, but the most culturally seismic. Guided by the authoritative voice of Rory Smith, longtime football correspondent for The New York Times, the collection moves chronologically through the sport's extraordinary arc: from Pelé's arrival on American soil to Messi's long-awaited coronation at the 2022 World Cup, from the birth of the Premier League to Zinedine Zidane's infamous fury on the world's grandest stage. Across borders, genders, and leagues, these are the flashpoints that didn't just define football. They defined us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrue to Assouline's commitment to the object as art form, the volume arrives in a sculptural rubber-like clamshell case, its hardcover rendered in a bold field-green that makes the iconic black-and-white ball leap from the surface. The three-dimensional football at its center is not decoration; it is a declaration. With the 2026 World Cup on the horizon, there has never been a more electric moment to hold this book in your hands. For those who have ever felt the pull of the beautiful game, it is nothing less than essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W 40 X L 47 X D 7 CM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Assouline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAbout Assouline:\u003c\/em\u003e Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives.\n \n Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories—a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe. Assouline has also inaugurated a curated library service, working closely with clients to visualize, design, and develop bespoke, one-of-a-kind libraries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assouline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51920012771623,"sku":"ASSO00233","price":135600.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/1207\/3767\/files\/ASSO00233.jpg?v=1787605723","url":"https:\/\/www.opulin.com\/products\/football-the-impossible-collection","provider":"Opulin by Sources Unlimited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
