Note that this book does not have color images, and it does not have as many images as later Olympic books did, but it has a number of full-page and multi-page images from many sports, including a great full-page image of Paavo Nurmi, the legendary "Flying Finn", as he is winning a race. Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned similar German hardcover books from the 1932 and 1936 Olympics, but we have NEVER before auctioned this book from the 1928 Olympics. It has no dust jacket, but based on the other similar books we have seen, it was likely created with one, but the cover of the hardcover binding has a great embossed purple and gold image with the title of the book on it. Note: We have 13 images of the books in this set, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 13 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 3. Note that we have pictured the front cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads. Condition: very good. The book has no dust jacket, but we don't know if it came with one (see above). It has some minor wear on the binding. See our many images to get a good sense of the condition of this book.
