Victory Parade in Honor of Olympic Champions
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photograph taken by Bain News Service in 1912, a jubilant parade winds its way through New York City's streets near Madison Square Park. The occasion is the celebration of the 5th Olympic Games held that year in Stockholm, Sweden. Thousands gather to pay tribute to America's finest athletes who have returned from Europe with medals and honors.
At center stage stands a grand banner emblazoned with "National Democratic Headquarters," proclaiming support for presidential candidate Woodrow Wilson and his running mate Thomas Marshall. The festive atmosphere is palpable as marchers, men and women alike, proudly carry flags and banners bearing the Olympic rings.
This striking black-and-white photograph captures not only the excitement of the parade but also a moment in American history when patriotism was at an all-time high. As we gaze upon this vintage image from Heritage Images, we are transported to a time when sportsmanship and national pride were celebrated with fervor. The Bain News Service's expert photography has preserved for us a lasting testament to America's Olympic spirit during the early 20th century.
