EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the moment when GC Callnan, a distinguished fencer from the United States, took the Olympic Oath during the Opening Ceremony of the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. The event took place on July 30, 1932, marking the beginning of the XIth Olympic Games. The formal ceremony was held at the Grand Olympic Auditorium, with a vibrant color palette of blue, red, green, yellow, and gold adorning the venue. GC Callnan, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a red sash, stands proudly before raising his right hand to take the oath. The oath, which was taken by all athletes participating in the Olympics, was a solemn commitment to abide by the rules and principles of fair play. The oath-taking ceremony was an essential part of the Olympic tradition, symbolizing the athletes' dedication and commitment to their sports and to the Olympic spirit. The 1932 Olympics in Los Angeles were significant in many ways. They were the first Olympics to be held in the United States since the 1904 St. Louis Games, and they were also the first Olympics to be broadcast on radio. The Games featured 14 sports and saw the participation of 1,332 athletes from 37 countries. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the Olympics and the unwavering commitment of athletes to the Olympic ideals. It serves as a reminder of the power of sports to bring people together and inspire greatness, regardless of nationality, race, or creed. The image is a treasured piece of Olympic history and a must-have for any collection dedicated to the Olympic Games and the athletes who have made them so special.
