Back in 2017, The Football Crest Index was first published — a glorious coffee table book that served to document and preserve the history behind the crests of all 49 clubs to have appeared in the English Premier League. The beautiful aesthetic of the publication was achieved by employing 49 different designers, each of whom supported the club they worked on to produce the artwork which accompanied the chronicle.

Now, due to the success of the first volume and the resulting demand for more, more, more, The Football Crest Index is back on Kickstarter hoping to raise funds for Volume 2 — this time taking a look at 34 clubs to have graced Italy’s Serie A.
