EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the victorious Canadian women's 4 x 100 metres relay team at the 1928 Summer Olympics in Amsterdam. Ethel Smith, Bobbie Rosenfeld, Myrtle Cook, and Jane Bell proudly display their gold medals as they stand together on the winner's podium. The unknown photographer beautifully captured this historic moment of triumph for these remarkable athletes. Dressed in their athletic attire, these determined women exude strength and resilience. Their synchronized poses reflect not only their physical prowess but also their unwavering teamwork and dedication to achieving greatness. Each member of the team radiates a sense of pride that comes from representing their country on an international stage. The significance of this image extends beyond individual achievements; it symbolizes the collective spirit of female athletes breaking barriers in a male-dominated field during the early 20th century. These trailblazing sportswomen paved the way for future generations by proving that gender should never limit one's potential or dreams. Preserved within "Die Welt in Bildern" cigarette card album, this photograph serves as a timeless reminder of Canada's sporting excellence and its contribution to Olympic history. It encapsulates not only a golden victory but also represents empowerment, determination, and unity among women who defied societal expectations to become true champions on and off the track.
