This ultimate book is the chronicle of Eddy Merckx's incredible breakthrough on the cycling scene.

With nearly 300 beautiful photos that have never been published before, this is a monument to one of the most impressive achievements in cycling history.

This edition is luxuriously produced with a slipcase evoking Eddy Merckx's yellow jersey and, in addition to the book, also contains a photo with signature from Eddy. Limited and numbered individually, this box is a true collector's item!
