"Tschutti Heftli" Is Being Discontinued
After eight years, the magazine Tschutti Heftli is being discontinued. However, the collectible stickers for the soccer tournaments will continue to be produced.
This is what the independent Central Swiss online magazine reports Central+. The Lucerne soccer magazine has been in publication since 2006 and, after 22 issues, will now be discontinued at the end of the year. The small club «Tschutti Heftli» "Due to time constraints, we are no longer able to produce the editorial issue regularly and to a high standard," said editorial board member Silvan Glanzmann. Several attempts to expand the five-member volunteer editorial team have failed.
However, the artistic collectible cards for soccer tournaments will continue to be produced. For the 2014 World Cup, 39 artists designed the soccer players, once again creating an alternative to Panini stickers. And it was a success: This year’s collectible album has sold better than ever before. (hae)
