1928 Photograph of female athletes on parade in Italy to the high praise of dictator Benito Mussolini but to the extreme condemnation of the Pope! The paper caption on the back is incredible as it refers to how badly the Pope hates it that women were competing in sports and all this from only 90 years ago! Issued by the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption.
