The experience of the 11th Olympic Games
in words, pictures and sound
 


This is by far the finest and rarest original book on the Olympic Summer Games 1936 in Berlin!
A highlight to every Olympia Collection.

It comes in a presentation box with inserted photo book and 3 shellac records.
The photo book in the left side of the box documents the various competitions of the Olympic disciplines. Jesse Owens is also shown of course.

The right side of the box contains three sleeves for three shellac discs with broadcastings of the Reichsrundfunk on the main events and competitions during the Olympic Summer Games! They were made by the well known Telefunken company. Telefunken had a big plant in Berlin which was used from the US Army Berlin Brigade as one of their barracks after the war (McNair barracks).
