“We are still alone in the world in many things.” Tomás Ondarra breathes Athletic on all four sides. This infographic, illustrator, painter, designer, writer and former director of the rojiblanco club, presented the book ‘Unique in the world’ yesterday at the Grand Prix. , the first book that commemorates in a unique way the 125th anniversary of the establishment of the Ibaigane entity.
This is not a book to be used. In fact, Ondarra spent two years completing hundreds of iconic illustrations of players, presidents, coaches, and fictional scenes that belong to the collective memory of rojiblanca fans. For this, it also had the collaboration of Iñigo Crespo, author of the texts, and the prologue of the journalist Santi Segurola.
Throughout this almost 300 pages, ‘Unique in the world’ also includes statistical data, classifications, squads and achievements of each Athletic season. This book, dedicated to the memory of the recently deceased Patxo Unzueta and Antonio Fernández Casado, will serve as a point of reference to clarify common discussions among rojiblancos supporters about rojiblancos games, experiences, players and more club.
“This is a book linked to Athletic created by the rojiblancos which, in addition to showing pictures of many old acquaintances of the club, can serve to see who is right in the typical discussions of the txokos about on specific issues related to this group”, Ondarra pointed out. .
The book, in full color and with more than 285 pages, is already in bookstores at a price of 32 euros. The work, unrelated to the activity of the Ibaigane entity, is the first to take to the streets to commemorate the 125th anniversary of Athletic that will be celebrated in 2023.
