<mods:abstract>This is a small poster featuring images from the Inter-Allied Games held from June 22 thru July 6, 1919. This seems to be an introductory poster that says you can get these pictures from H. S. Drucker at 16, Rue Bahaumont Paris. The poster features three photographs, including a boxing match and two track races. This is one poster in a set of posters, of which 13 are in this collection, that show photographs taken by the United States Signal Corps of the events, facilities, and participants of the Inter-Allied Games. The Inter-Allied Games were held from June 22 – July 6, 1919. The event was only open to participation by military personnel who were currently serving or had formerly served in the armed forces during the War. No Women participated. Around 1500 athletes from around eighteen nations including (just to name a few) Australia, Canada, Czecho-Slovakia (as it was known in 1919), France, Hedjaz (Arabia), Italy, the U.K., and the U.S., participated. Nineteen sports were featured, including baseball, basketball, boxing, football, golf, swimming, track and field, tennis and even hand grenade tossing. The host stadium, named the Pershing Stadium, was built near the Bois de Vincennes by the U.S. Military in cooperation with the YMCA. After the games, the stadium was presented as a gift to French people. More than 500,000 spectators witnessed the competition. This poster was photographed and then cropped to deal with some of the inconsistances from the photography. Parts of the border have been cropped.</mods:abstract>
