Approximately 13” x 10” original leather promotional booklet for the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Germany produced the special promotional booklet to showcase the Berlin Olympics venues. The inscriptions in a special two-page section reproduce the signatures of the Games’ gold medalists, including Jesse Owens. These are replica signatures. The heavily politicized 1936 Games were famous partly because of Owens. The U.S. track and field star won four gold medals in front of Adolph Hitler.
