Original 1935 photograph of Adolf Hitler's new masterpiece taking shape before it would be presented to the world in Berlin. Here we see the structural footings of what would become the Olympic Stadium being built. A year later Jesse Owens would figuratively crush it by winning four gold medals in Hitler's face! Issued by the International News and stamped on the back with a full paper caption, this is the only example of this image we have handled and the condition is fantastic.
