Demetrio Albertini #8 (FIGC centenary match - Italy vs FIFA World Stars, Rome, 16 Dec 1998)

This shirt was obtained from an Italian ebayer... for me, it's the rarest shirt in my whole collection, having encountered only once in my ebay experience.

Very nice badge for the establishment of FIGC for 100 years 



The retro letters are not of the actual font type of player-worn shirts. The font type was used by other 'Nike' national teams instead.
 
Azzurri wore long-sleeved shirts in the match... nevertheless, this shirt is still my most favourite collection.
