Olympic Games/ Summer, 1924/ Paris. Among the most original Olympic souvenirs, next to pipes or fans, we have to mention the silver or pewter goblets...It was a christening or communion gift, and now it's an Olympic souvenir!!! The means to be able to drink properly anywhere, perhaps. Three goblets signed: "VIII Olympiad, 1924"...Between the ancient discobolus, and the mixed doubles tennis game, how can you not be delighted? It's prestigious, precious and...practical. H: 10.5, diam h: 8. Good condition. Romantics will see it as a tribute to the winners of the mixed doubles game, Richard Williams (survivor of the Titanic, please) and Hazel Hotchkiss Wightman. Silver-plated metal
