David Feldman Olympic Games and Football June 4, 2019

Themes that span many Olympic Games can be devloped on Olympic symbols (rings, flag, victory, Olympic relays, etc.), Olympic ceremomies, Politics at the Games, Olympic venues – all of which are examples of INTER- DEPENDENCE. We must also add the chapter on DELTIOLOGY- the study of illustrated postcards. The IPCS are the visual documents of Olympic history, and designed for postal use. The IPCs should be part of an Olympic collection. Their importance is especially significant for the 1912 and 1924 OG. Remember that a picture is worth a thousand words! Finally, one important fact has almost, if not completely, been ignored – the adverse sport movements which were ideologically omnipresent. Amongst the most significant ones, one should include the Workers Olympiads, the Spartakiads, the Deutsche Kampfspiele, the Turnerfests and the SOKOL games. Adding postal documents of the above movements ought to be part of an advanced Olympic collection. Should you be interested in the INTER- DEPENDENCE of the lots in this catalogue, do visit the David Feldman website, where you will be able to view the lots by Games, but also by their thematic aspects, such as mythology, Olympic stadiums, ceremonies, etc. Manfred Bergman, Consultant Olympic Games and Football Award Winning Collections INDEX Pierre de Coubertin 10000-10003 Ancient Olympia & Pre-Olympics 10004-10007 1896 Athens 10008-10085 1900 Paris 10086-10088 1904 St. Louis 10089-10090 1906 Athens 10091-10155 1908 London 10156-10164 1908-1912 Intervening Championships 10165 1912 Stockholm 10166-10212 1912-1916 Pre-Olympic Trials, Replacement Games and the Cancelled Games of Berlin 10213-10242 1916 Berlin 10243-10247 1917-1920 Intervening Championships 10248-10250 1920 Antwerp 10251-10287 1924 Chamonix 10288-10290 1924 Paris 10291-10395 1925 Prague Congress 10396-10405 1925-1928 Intervening Championships 10406-10407 1928 St. Moritz 10408 1928 Amsterdam 10409-10477 1928-1932 Intervening Championships 10478-10479 1930 Berlin Congress 10480 1932 Lake Placid 10481-10484 1932 Los Angeles 10485-10492 1932-1936 Intervening Championships 10493-10494 1936 Garmisch-Partenkirchen 10495-10498 1936 Berlin 10499-10561 1936-1940 Intervening Championships 10562-10567 1940 Garmisch-Parternkirchen (Cancelled) 10568-10572 1940 Sapporo (Cancelled) 10573-10574 1940 Tokyo (Cancelled) 10575-10584 1940 Helsinki (Cancelled) 10585-10615 1940-1944 Intervening Championships 10616 1944 Cortina d’Ampezzo (Cancelled) 10617-10618 1944 Polish P.O.W.
