A sticker album is a book in which collectable stickers are stuck into designated sections. Sticker album themes can be sporting events such as the FIFA World Cup, English Premier League or TV shows, Movies, Animals or Music. Panini were the first company to release a collectable football sticker doing so in 1961, but coming more prominent with their release of the 1970 World Cup album. Merlin Publishing and Topps also notably mass produced sticker albums of a variety of different subjects.
