Panini Fussball 2002 (Austria)

 

Panini Fussball Bundesliga 2002 is Panini’s sticker collection dedicated to Austrian domestic football for the 2001/2002 season, covering both the Bundesliga and the Erste Division. The album consists of 312 stickers and follows a very traditional Panini layout, typical of the early 2000s, without update sets, parallel collections, posters or card-based extras.

The album begins with a single introductory page celebrating the achievements of the previous season, showing Tirol Innsbruck as Austrian champions and Jürgen Gilewicz, also from Tirol, as the league’s top scorer of the 2000/2001 campaign. 

The core of the collection is devoted to the 10 Bundesliga clubs, which are presented according to their final league position from the previous season rather than alphabetically. Each club is allocated four pages and 27 stickers: the shiny club badge, the home stadium, a team photo split into two stickers, five shiny action stickers highlighting key players in match situations, and 18 player portrait stickers included in the squad. 

Once the Bundesliga teams are completed, the album briefly shifts focus away from club football with two dedicated sections. The first is devoted to the Austria National Team and features five stickers, consisting of a two-sticker team photograph and three action stickers representing Alfred Hörtnagl, Roland Kirchler, and Christian Mayrleb. 

This is followed by the section titled “Österreichische Stars im Ausland”, which highlights Austrian players active outside the domestic league during the 2001/2002 season. Here, Panini includes five shiny action stickers featuring Harald Cerny (Munchen 1860), Dietmar Kühbauer (VfL Wolfsburg), Martin Stranzl (VfB Stuttgart), Andreas Herzog (Werder Bremen), and Markus Weissenberger (Eintracht Frankfurt). 

The final portion of the album is dedicated to the Erste Division, which is presented in a more concise format. Each of the 10 second-tier clubs is represented by three stickers, consisting of a shiny club badge and a team photo divided into two stickers. 

In sporting terms, the 2001/2002 Austrian Bundesliga season concluded with Tirol Innsbruck winning the league title, while the top goal scorer was Ronald Brunmayr of Grazer AK, who finished the season with 27 goals.

Panini Fussball 2003/2004 (Austria)

 

The Fussball Bundesliga 03/04 sticker album, published by Panini, is dedicated to the Austrian football season 2003/2004 and covers both the Bundesliga and the Erste Liga. With a total of 312 stickers, the collection follows the classic early-2000s Panini format, offering a well-structured and comprehensive overview of Austrian domestic football without updates, special inserts, posters, or card extras.

The album opens with an introductory page featuring two stickers, both celebrating the previous season. These depict Austria Wien as champions of the 2002/2003 Bundesliga and Axel Lawarée, who finished as top scorer of the 2002/2003 season.

The main body of the album is dedicated to the 10 Bundesliga clubs, each presented over four pages with a total of 27 stickers per team. For every club, the layout includes the shiny club badge, the stadium, the manager, a team photo composed of two stickers, five shiny action stickers of players, and 17 player portrait stickers. 

After the Bundesliga sections, the album features a series of special pages that reflect key moments and themes from the 2002/2003 season. The first of these is dedicated to the final of the Austrian Cup 2002/2003, illustrated with two stickers on a single page. This is followed by the Season Highlights 2002/2003, consisting of three stickers showcasing memorable moments from the campaign. The Young-Star Team 2002/2003 then presents the best emerging talents of the league, with three of the selected players represented as stickers. Another short section titled “Österreichische Kicker im Ausland 2003/2004” highlights Austrian players abroad, featuring Martin Stranzl and Harald Cerny.

The album concludes with the Erste Liga section, which adopts a more compact presentation. Each of the 10 second-division clubs is represented by three stickers: a team photo split into two stickers and a shiny club badge. 

From a sporting perspective, the 2003/2004 season was marked by the historic success of Grazer AK, who won the Austrian Bundesliga title, while Roland Kollmann, also playing for Grazer AK, finished the championship as top scorer with 27 goals.
