Some of the greatest highlights in Olympic history were made at the 1996 Games in Atlanta, including Michael Johnson's record-setting double in the 200/400 meter races, Carl Lewis' long jump win for his ninth and final gold medal, the U.S. women's gymnastics Dream Team taking the gold after a stirring performance by Kerri Strug, and Amy Van Dyken becoming the first American women to win four golds in a single Game (in swiumming). Those moments of glory are commemorated by a limited edition of chairs used during the Games and authorized for issue by the 1996 Olympic Committee. The chair is forest green and white and has a gray padded back cushion featuring a multi-colored Atlanta 1996 Centennial Game Torch logo. The chair measures 15" x 16-1/2", weighs 20 pounds and comes with a sequentially numbered plague and certificate of authenticity indicating that its number within the edition run is 281 of 402.
