1936 Olympics Bronze Medal

The 1936 Summer Olympics (German: Olympische Sommerspiele 1936), officially known as the Games of the XI Olympiad (German: Spiele der XI. Olympiade), were an international multi-sport event held from 1 to 16 August 1936 in Berlin, Germany. Berlin won the bid to host the Games over Barcelona at the 29th IOC Session on 26 April 1931. The 1936 Games marked the second and most recent time the International Olympic Committee gathered to vote in a city that was bidding to host those Games. Later rule modifications forbade cities hosting the bid vote from being awarded the games.

Bronze medal from the XI Olympiad, won at the 1936 Berlin Olympic games by American sprint canoeist Ernest Riedel, and accompanied by four other medals given to Riedel as provenance. Olympic medal was won in the K-1 10,000 meter event, and bears relief of the goddess Victory to obverse, as she holds a winner’s crown in her right hand and a palm leaf in her left, accompanied by the inscription, “XI / Olympiade / Berlin 1936”.
