Description
Photograph of 1924 Olympics pole vault champion, Lee Barnes, 1924. A man in the center of the image appears to be in motion as he flies over a bar. The man appears to be almost parallel with the ground as he holds his arms over his head while bending his knees and curving his body. He wears a dark form fitted tank top with the letters "SC" embossed on it and a pair of lightly colored shorts. A man on the bottom left wears a suit while looking towards the pole vaulter.
