Description from the seller

- Olympic Games Torch Barcelona 1992 (SPAIN)
- Very Rare and Old Item
- The Torch Height = 68 CM
- Condition: Good, with signs of age; there is tape on it for protection.

HISTORY:
The Olympic torch of the XXV Olympic Games, designed by the Catalan André Ricard Sala, visited in 39 days the 17 autonomous communities, covering more than 6,000 km. It passed through 652 locations and stopped at 60. A total of 9,500 carriers participated.

On 24 July it made its triumphal entry into Barcelona from Palma de Mallorca and was greeted with a multitudinous party that lasted all night in all the districts of the city. The next day it arrived on time at the Olympic Stadium, and its last relay, the Paralympic athlete Antonio Rebollo, by means of a bow launch from the center of the stage, was the one in charge of igniting the cauldron, thus inaugurating the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games.
