Two impressive items: original 1936 Winter Olympics badge, with color ribbon featuring the five Olympic rings and “Herrn-Slalom,” printed near the bottom, with “IV Olmp. Winterspiele 1936, Garmisch–Partenkirchen,” on the metal at the top; and a 1.25″ diameter metal and colored enamel competitor's badge, with an image of the Olympic rings and the Alps on the front, with “Teilnehmer 899,” engraved on the reverse. In overall fine condition. The silk badge is actually a ticket to the Men's Slalom event and this is the only Olympic Games where admission tickets were made of silk, for skiing and bobsled. Garmisch 1936 items are scarce in comparison to that year’s summer games in Berlin.
