Publication archives and organizes hockey pucks collected by my aunt’s friend from Košice, Ľubomír Bateľ, from the World Hockey Championships since 1933 – 2021. It points to the puck as a medium of graphic design and uses it to explore the identity of hockey of each era. Winning years such as Czechoslovakia and Slovakia are supplemented with comments from the live broadcast of the match. The pucks changed over the years in terms of design and emblems that were designed. The content also includes an interview with the owner of the provided pucks. The whole publication is designed with my own custom typeface PUQ created particularly for this book. The main character of the typeface is based on the strokes in the shape of hockey sticks. The publication was made as my bachelor project
