Harold “Hal” Osborn (D. 1975) won 2 gold medals for the Olympic decathlon and high jump at the 1924 Olympic games in Paris France (featured in the movie, “Chariots of Fire.”). Osborn was the first and, to this day, the only athlete ever to win gold in both the decathlon and an individual event. He participated in the 1928 Olympics, but was not able to duplicate his earlier success.
We offer a very rare signed 1926 Spalding Champions trading card that has been signed by Olson in black ink and encapsulated by PSA/DNA. We gather that this may be a 1 of 1 as far as the population goes.
Seldom offered autograph on this very special card.
