1925 Press photograph of the greatest Track Star of his generation, Charley Paddock from California demonstrating the proper form to a young Native American athlete. At the time this image was taken Paddock had recently returned from the 1924 Olympics in which he won a Silver Medal to compliment the two Golds and one Silver he had already won in 1920! Photo looks nice with a corner chip and some wear on the lower left corner. Issued by NEA and stamped on the back with a paper caption as well, this is a unique new discovery that is being offered here for the first time ever.
