Seller's Story
Collector, archivist, and sports historian for 35 years, I now keep only pieces that help better understand the history of major sporting events such as the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup.
Selected among 24 global exhibitors, I presented at the Paris Olympic Games rare documents from 1892 to 1894 that illuminate the path of Pierre de Coubertin in the rehabilitation of the modern Games.
