Description

Ticket stub for the athletics events of the Munich 1972 Summer Olympics held at the Olympic Stadium on September 2, 1972, measuring 5.75 x 4, signed in black ballpoint, "Dave Wottle, 'Greatest Comeback,' 800M Gold." Encapsulated and graded by PSA as "STUB AUTHENTIC/AUTO 9."

Dave Wottle's 800 meter race at the 1972 Munich Olympics is remembered as one of the greatest comebacks in Olympic history. After trailing the pack for most of the race, Wottle unleashed a powerful finishing kick in the final stretch to overtake the leaders and clinch the gold medal in a dramatic photo finish.
