    Ralph Waldo Rose, world record holder and Olympic Champion in the shot put was the flag bearer of the USA Olympic Team for the 1908 London Games. Controversially, he did not dip the flag in salute the the King of England.

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Photography Paradiso, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
  • Ray Radlein said:
    How could this have been taken in 1910, given that there were no Olympic games that year?
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Ray Radlein: 1912 it is! We'll update the year inside the description of the photo. For the Flickr "taken some time in" year, we used "1910" as a placeholder to indicate the decade. We're still figuring out how to provide more specific chronological information as we load photos in batches.

    Not a whole lot of "lookers" on the '12 team. That is as homely a group of guys this side of major league baseball. :-)
  • Frederick said:
    Looking at the right side of this photo it seems to be missing a part or maybe there is a second photo to get the rest of the team in the long wide panoramic style?
