The cover of our upcoming book – Full Color Electric Football.
Electric Football’s first all-color book is getting ever closer to being finished. As we revealed last week, our upcoming Full Color Electric Football project is in the design stage right now. The format is all set, the photos are at the ready, the text is locked in, and the book is being carefully constructed through the artistic eye of our designer Michael Kronenberg.
When complete, Full Color Electric Football will be 120 pages…and every single page will be in color. Our concept for the book is a simple: we all loved studying the full-color NFL insert that came in our Tudor Rule Books. So we set out to make a color Rule Book insert that goes on for 120 pages, and also includes the Electric Football lines from Gotham, Coleco, and Munro Games.
Full Color Electric Football is all about showing off the best Electric Football images we can find. There will be some descriptive text, but most pages of Full Color Electric Football will use an all-photo format. Obviously we will borrow some of the great images from The Unforgettable Buzz, but we also have a playbook full of new and unseen photos that make Full Color Electric Football feel like a completely original work.
From what we have so far…the book has already exceeded our expectations. Michael is a world-class designer who has brought his “A” game to the project. We can’t wait to preview some sample pages, which will be doing in the very near future.
At the moment, Full Color Electric Football is scheduled to be published in time for the NFL preseason. We’ll keep you posted on the exact date.
We’re very excited — 2015 is shaping up as another great year in Electric Football!

I can’t wait! It’s gonna be awesome!! Thanks for the challenging math equation.
Looking for Information on the 2015 convention thanks
Stephen, no word on a 2015 Tudor convention as of yet. There was talk of having it during warmer weather to make travel easier.
I bought the book “The Unforgettable Buzz” as I am an electric football team collector and have also bought 3 game boards as well. The book is very interesting and a great reference to the growth and development of electric football. I feel the all color, mostly picture book will be an even more enlightening book as the reader will have an actual color visual of this wonderful hobby.
We agree Craig, Electric Football is SO all about color. Unfortunately, if we had make 600 page color book no one could have afforded to buy it!! We’re very excited about the color book. Between it and The Unforgettable Buzz we’ll have most of Electric Football covered!!
Great cover shot! This book will be an excellent treat to look forward to in 2015.
Thanks David!! We can’t wait to get it out, but we’re going to make sure we do it right.
