EDITORS COMMENTS
This souvenir card captures the classical and historical essence of the Olympics Games held in Paris, France, in 1924. The image features a figure of the Greek god of the Olympics, DE, standing proudly with an outstretched hand, overlooking the scenic Lake Colombes. In the foreground, a male athlete is depicted in the act of throwing a discus, embodying the spirit of athletic competition that has defined the Olympic Games since their inception. The Olympics Games in Paris, held from May 4 to July 27, 1924, marked the second time the event was held in France and the first time it was held in the summer instead of the winter. The games were significant for several reasons, including the introduction of the modern Olympic flag and the adoption of the five interconnected rings as the symbol of the Olympics. The statue of DE, the Greek god of the Olympics, was a fitting symbol for the games, representing the rich history and cultural significance of the Olympic tradition. The statue, which was originally created for the 1896 Athens Olympics, was brought to Paris for the 1924 games as a symbol of unity and continuity. This souvenir card serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Olympics Games and the timeless values they represent - excellence, perseverance, and unity. The image of DE and the athletic figure in the foreground capture the classical and historical essence of the Olympics, making this a cherished piece of sports history.
