Jedermann sein eigner Fussball. John Heartfield (1919)


Jedermann sein eigner Fussball (Everyman His Own Football) was an illustrated magazine published by members of the Dada Movement in 1919, . It specialized in absurd satire and was invariably seized by the police as soon as it was off the presses. 
The German championships of 1918-19 were of course affected by the war. There were no National Championship playoffs, and only 3 regional championships were completed:
Brandenburg: Viktoria 1889 Berlin
Mittel-Deutschland: Hallescher FC
Nord-Deutschland: Victoria Hamburg
