'82, '30, '10.

'66 and '94 worst, although '06 is pretty shite too.

Mexico also particularly good (1970)

Liking Switzerland and Chile, strongly dislike Argentina's, LOLs aplenty at USA, Italy 1990 and Germany 2006. The 1990 one is awful, replacing the crudely drawn pitch with a crudely drawn cock would have improved it no end.

These were all printed in the Times a couple of months or so back.

The 78 one looks like protester being rugby tackled by an soldier. How topical at the time.

I considered posting similar - it looked to me like an Argentine intellectual being shoved out of a plane door at 20,000ft over the Rio Plate

1954 I want this poster
1962
1970 might actually be artistic genius
1990 not actually that bad
1994 LOL
2010 seems similar to some of the first ones

1954 Swiss poster is a thing of beauty.




Mexico 1968 Olympics graphics >>>>>> Mexico 1970 WC graphics




Seems that the US did produce a poster for 1994.



:shock:

Brazil 1950, Chile 1962, Argentina 1978 and Spain 1982 are decent too.

Zammo Mexico 70 defo, although they are all very good indeed. Although, the '66 isn't that inspiring. A cartoon lion kicking a ball......


Surely everyone knows his name!

Definitely the Mexico 70. So iconic. I also like the 34 and 38 ones.

The US marketing team must have spent a minute on the 94 poster: the time it took to do a colour copy of a postage stamp. Lazy.
