Artistic and historical description
Interesting documentary archive related to the first edition of the Orange Bowl Marathon, held in Miami on December 26, 1977 and organized in collaboration with Florida International University. It is a historical collection that brings together numerous graphic and documentary testimonies related both to the competition and to the atmosphere of American athletics in the late seventies.
Among the most notable elements are the program of the First Annual Orange Bowl Marathon 1977, documentation with the official results of the race, information about the course and maps, photographs of runners and the event, contemporary press clippings and various material related to the organization of the race.
The lot also includes several vintage race bibs, including examples from Nike, Brooks and Palm Beach Runners, adding extra appeal for collectors of running history and major sporting brands.
An important portion of the archive is organized in a loose-leaf album, with abundant press cuttings, photographs and period documentation. The variety and provenance of the materials confer a distinctly personal-archive character to the whole, beyond a mere collection of sports memories.
The original photographs show competition scenes, runners, finishes and moments related to athletics of the era, constituting a visual testimony to the development of popular running and American marathons during the 1970s.
Because of its combination of official documentation, photography, press, race bibs and graphic material, it is an especially interesting lot for collectors of sports memorabilia, athletics, running, vintage Nike and 20th-century American historical documentation.
