110 metre race - Olympic Games - 1912 (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Nathan Adams said:
    The 1912 Summer Olympics were held in Stockhom, Sweden. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1912_Summer_Olympics
  • Bob said:
    This is definitely NOT a 110m race, since no such race was ever contested at an Olympics without hurdles. Running in lanes through a curve suggests either a 200m or 400m, but this is most likely the 400m. The background is where the present day finish line is (and I believe where it was in 1912 as well), and the relatively even stagger among the runners again suggests that this just after the start of the 400. There are five runners in the field. Assuming that this is the final, that also points to the 400 since there were five runners in the 400m final, and six in the 200m. From the results of the 400m final, the runners, from right (lane 1) to left (lane 5): 1. Ted Meredith (USA) 2. Hanns Braun (GER) 3. Charles Reidpath (USA) 4. Carroll Haff (USA) 5. Edward Lindberg (USA) The uniforms that are clearly visible match that lineup. Edited to add source: bottom of page 64, Olympic Track & Field statistics book, published by IAAF (International governing body for T&F). Lanes are in parentheses next to order of finish. www.iaaf.org/mm/document/competitions/competition/p1-181_... -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)

Trollhättan Falls, Sweden

    I nearly can't believe this image is that old. Stunning.
  • Carl-Fredric said:
    Mycket fin fotoström, roligt när institutioner tar vara på de möjligheter som finns att visa sina samlingar på nya vis. Men, en liten undran, nog ligger väl Trollhättan i Västergötland och inte i Småland? Eller har dom ändrat på landskapen också nu?

    Carl-Fredric: Roligt att du uppskattar vår medverkan på Flickr Commons! Vi ser det som en jättebra möjlighet att sprida våra bilder till fler och dessutom få kommunicera omkring dem. Javisst ligger Trollhättan i Västergötland! Denna lapsus är nu fixad. /Anna B
