With much anticipation since the end of the FIFA World Cup in 2006, the 2010 World Cup in South Africa has been going on for two weeks with the first round of eliminations coming to an end this week. With everyone, including myself, being focused on rooting for their team to move forward, I had a little inspiration to do this article when I saw the ESPN 33 FIFA Murals for each individual team taking part in the games. I decided to look up the official design posters from the past World Cup. Here are all the poster designs for the World Cup since 1930, starting with the most recent, South Africa to the oldest, Uruguay.
