Description

Panathinaikos is the club of Athens and the clover, the sports emblem of the capital. But when did the roots of the symbol that conquered the heart of every Athenian sprout? Who planted the first seed? Which great painter created the emblem of the Club of the Great? The first pieces of the puzzle were placed in the previous volumes of 1908 and now, in volume 04, the big picture is revealed to the readers.
The graphic novel series 1908 completes one year of circulation and we celebrate it with a collectible, enhanced and highly revealing volume!

A new protagonist is introduced to our readers: Apostolos Nikolaidis. He is the most dominant and iconic figure, who dominated every aspect of Greek sports, from the late 1910s to 1980. In the graphic novel "As soon as they see the clover" we delve into unknown aspects of his youth. From his love affair with Smaragda to his football achievements with the Bayern Munich jersey...
At the same time, the book you are holding transports you, through the eyes of Giorgos Kalafatis, to a different Athens. In an era when boxing matches were considered cosmopolitan spectacles and poets fought in them.
Back when the Perivola of Ampelokipi was a lush, vast expanse, at the foot of Mount Lycabettus; a landscape that the founder of Panathinaikos fell in love with and did everything to create the club's stadium there.
Finally, volume 04 examines how football teams attempted to convey messages of unity during the tragic period of the National Division. And it is revealed that Panathinaikos won the championship in 1918! Another title is added to the (literally) thousands of the Clover.
