Fussball Ohne Aufnehmen Des Balles (Assoziation-Fussball)



First published in 1909, this 90 page booklet was volume 18 in a series on sports and games. The title rather charmingly translates as Football Without Picking Up The Ball. Author Johannes Scharfe was a pioneer of football in Silesia , secretary of VfB Leipzig and director of the Leipzig Football Association. Herr Scharfe was also a referee. 
The cover photograph appears to show Slavia Prague in action.
