“The wind still blows” and it blows again! The Fan Forever Card # 7 solidarity card which portrayed Pierangelo and Alberto Bertoli as Sassuolo footballers was among our most successful solidarity cards, which has already achieved the goal of supporting the beautiful reality of Porta Aperta Odv which operates in the province of Modena.
Having received the invitation from Alberto Bertoli to take part, as in 2021, in the Pierangelo Bertoli Award, we decided to do an encore. By creating a new solidarity card, naturally and completely different from the previous one, which celebrated the singer-songwriter as the great artist, poet, storyteller who was and who will forever be in the hearts of many, including us.
Forever Card # 21 is dedicated to Pierangelo Bertoli! The initiative was made possible by the renewed availability of the Bertoli family, in a period of important anniversaries: 20 years from Pierangelo’s death, 80 years from his birth, in 2023 it will also be 50 years from his recording debut.
Important is the collaboration with the Pierangelo Bertoli Award, which we remember in our postcard, on the front a photo of the exciting couple performance of Roby Facchinetti and Alberto Bertoli at last year’s edition; on the back, the Prize logo and a tribute to one of Bertoli’s most famous songs.
BERTOLI FOR PORTA APERTA! With this solidarity card it will be possible to support the “Adotta con la Figurina” project where Figurine Forever engages annually in different solidarity projects and in particular to the PORTA OPERTA Volunteer Association (https://www.portaapertamodena.it/), a historic reality in Modena and the whole province, committed to the front line in solidarity and in the fight against social exclusion.

Forever Card #20: IVAN GRAZIANI!
Pigro (Lazy) Forever! In our FanForever series we have involved historical names of Italian music, icons of our sounds and our culture who, personally or through their heirs, wanted to participate in our initiative, particular but above all in solidarity. Each of them is unique and alone, the rock singer-songwriter we are announcing is even more so: the solidarity FanForever Card # 20 is dedicated to Ivan Graziani.
This approach to the artist has led us to listen to songs that are an important part of Italian music: “Lugano Addio”, “Firenze (canzone triste)”, “Agnese dolce Agnese”, “Pigro”, the list would be quite long, for an important career unfortunately ended too soon 25 years after the death of Ivan Graziani, it is an honor but also a burden to pay homage to him.
Unlike the previous FanForever Cards, for Ivan Graziani we decided to have a different image on the postcard than the one on the card. We felt it was important and meaningful to pay homage doubly. Above all, we couldn’t resist inserting his beloved guitar and his equally unforgettable red glasses in some way.
The solidarity card is made in collaboration with his wife Anna Graziani, she revealed to us Ivan’s passion for the football team of his city, as well as that for the Italian national team. For this reason it was chosen to dress the rock singer-songwriter with the classic Teramo Calcio shirt. The year is not accidental, we wanted to hypothesize an alternative story where Ivan, in 1973, while his first album in Italian was released, was called to play in the red and white club. Maybe one day sharing the field with another Graziani, this time of real football and world champion, Francesco, for all Ciccio.
IVAN GRAZIANI for ANFFAS Teramo!
With this solidarity card it will be possible to support the “Adotta con la Figurina” project where Figurine Forever engages annually in different solidarity projects and to raise funds to support Anffas Teramo (http://www.anffasteramo.it/), according with Graziani Family.

Forever Card #14: RINO GAETANO!
Rino Gaetano Forever! It does not seem at all 40 long years have passed since the death of the great singer-songwriter, his music is in our daily life, it resounds on radios, televisions, squares, in the hearts of all Italians. In addition to being often honored by contemporary artists, so much is the power and beauty of Rino’s songs. It is with great joy that we announce the Fan Forever Card # 14 dedicated to the Calabrian-born artist.
We could not have chosen a better occasion to present it than the MEI (https://meiweb.it/), the historic Meeting of Independent Labels, this year dedicated to Rino. The collaboration between MEI and Figurine Forever is enriched even more so, the availability of the Gaetano family has naturally made everything possible. The concert of the Rino Gaetano Band, scheduled for October 1 in Faenza, was the apotheosis to make the release of this new solidarity card even more special. The MEI will have the exclusivity of this issue, only then will the remaining copies be available on our website and at other events. One more reason to go to Faenza!
Continuing our editorial line of representing artists with the jersey of the team of the heart or of his own city, we have decided to present Rino with the jersey of Crotone in the early 50s (the singer was born on October 29, 1950), his city of origin. . We think it is a tribute that the Calabrian city will surely appreciate. The photo was provided to us directly by Mrs. Anna Gaetano, Rino’s sister, from her family archives; with a detail of the face we made the card.
RINO GAETANO FOR THE MEYER! With this solidarity card it will be possible to support the “Adotta con la Figurina” project where Figurine Forever engages annually in different solidarity projects and to raise funds for the Meyer Pediatric Hospital in Florence (https://www.meyer.it/). An important, unique, highly specialized company and a national reference point. A successful and established association between new technologies, therapy and research, always on the side of children with high levels of care. A structure that, in addition to care and science, grants the right and proper space to humanity and the hospitality of young patients and their families.

Forever Card #8: AVINCOLA!
“Goal!”. The first purchase of José Mourinho’s Roma! After participating in the Sanremo 2021 Festival, here is the new adventure for Avincola. Of course we are joking, but not on the new FanForever Card which is dedicated to the Roman singer-songwriter, one of the most promising in the panorama of the capital.
Avincola’s musical career has already seen him affirm himself on various occasions, winner of numerous awards, among the many artists he has crossed in his path we like to remember the great Freak Antoni, singer of the Skiantos and protagonist together with Dandy Bestia of our FanForever Card # 6.
Avincola was born in June 1987, so we immortalized him as the footballer of the season that began in 1986 and the idol of the South Curve. Avincola photo by Matteo Casilli. The initiative was made possible thanks to the great availability of the artist and Leave Music (http://www.leavemusic.it/).
AVINCOLA FOR OFFICINE BUONE! With this solidarity card it will be possible to support the “Adotta con la Figurina” project where Figurine Forever engages annually in different solidarity projects and raise funds to the OdV Officine Buone (https://www.officinebuone.it/en/), a new way of volunteering, closely connected to the world of music, theater and culture, through activities in hospitals and places of fragility. Officine Buone is present in several cities and also in Rome where “our new figurina” Avincola was born and lives.

Forever Card #7: BERTOLI!
“Eppure il vento soffia ancora!”. We are happy and proud to present our new Fan Forever Card, as the previous one of the Skiantos is a double card, it presents two generations of songwriters, Pierangelo Bertoli and his son Alberto.
The project was made possible thanks to the availability of Alberto and the Bertoli family, precisely the great sense of belonging to the territory made us decide to make a card with the colors of Sassuolo, the birthplace of both. While Alberto is a black&green fan, Pierangelo was actually known as a great Juventus fan. After all, in the 50s Sassuolo, then Sassolese, played in the minor categories and it is understandable that the young Pierangelo was attracted to the great champions of one of the Serie A teams.
We like to think, however, that from up there Pierangelo accompanies with his guitar both the black and white deeds and those of his hometown team, now in the football elite.
BERTOLI FOR PORTA APERTA! With this solidarity card it will be possible to support the “Adotta con la Figurina” project where Figurine Forever engages annually in different solidarity projects, in particular to the PORTA OPERTA Volunteer Association (https://www.portaapertamodena.it/), a historic reality in Modena and the whole province, committed to the front line in solidarity and in the fight against social exclusion.

The postcard will be printed in 500 copies with release scheduled for August 22, 2020, on the occasion of the Nomadi concert in Iseo (Brescia) where we will be present as Association.
The card was well appreciated by Beppe Carletti, whom we thank again (in the photo the exchange of messages with his enthusiastic ok)
