This impressive award was given by the International Association of Athletic Federations posthumously to Jesse Owens in recognition of his world records in the 100m, 200m and Long Jump. Measuring 12½ inches high and weighing four pounds, this gold-washed metallic award signifies Owens 2012 induction into the IAAF’s Hall of Fame.The IAAF is the international governing body for the sport of athletics (track & field), now based in Monaco and headed by President Sebastian Coe. The trophy shows very little handing. Attached photo of Coe with Usain Bolt shows the same style trophy from the IAAF's inaugural 2012 gala.
Includes LOA signed by each of Jesse Owens' three daughters.
