Ballon d'Or

Conceived by France Football sports writer Gabriel Hanot in 1956, the Ballon d'Or is football's most coveted individual award. It's the prize every footballer dreams of winning. Of course, only a handful of players around the world are even considered for such an honour and, because we only deal with the best of the best, it's here on Icons.com that you'll find the biggest and most extensive collection of signed memorabilia from the Ballon d'Or's legendary list of winners – plus items signed by current nominees and past runners-up.
