It was one of the 20th century's most powerful and controversial moments in sports, and a watershed event in the civil rights movement. After failing to convince their fellow black athletes to boycott the Mexico City 1968 Olympics, Tommie Smith and John Carlos succeeded in winning the gold and bronze medals in the 200 meters track & field event. Determined to use the grand stage of the Olympic games as a platform for protest, Smith and Carlos accepted their medals in bare feet (to bring attention to the poverty of the African-American community), wearing beads (in honor of the countless blacks murdered as victims of slavery or racism), and holding black-gloved fists in the air (the "Black Power" salute).
A storm of outrage hit Smith and Carlos immediately. For disrespecting the "Star Spangled Banner" and the Olympic games, the IOC forced the U.S. Olympic Committee to withdraw them from the relays, banish them from the Olympic Village, and expel them from the U.S. Olympic team. Most of white America was also outraged at their actions, and both men experienced a heavy backlash upon their return home. Nonetheless, their legend has grown, and this classic black-and-white image has become a symbol of the struggle for equality for black athletes in America.
Popularized by its appearance in the 2000 football film Remember the Titans, this poster gives you the chance to celebrate a historic moment that means so much to so many. In beautiful, classic black-and-white, this is a must for anyone interested in Smith, Carlos and the Civil Rights movement - as well as those wishing simply to display a classic moment in Olympic history!

Own a spectacular, rare poster classic! This amazing piece features an incredible color action shot of the great running rebel himself, Steve Prefontaine, crossing the line for another victory at his legendary home track, the University of Oregon's Hayward Field, in front of his adoring and enthusiastic Eugene fan base. The intensity, the emotion, the exhaustion, of the world's most famous track star of the early 1970s, is truly iconic and unique, and to this day, still inspires athletes worldwide.
Published at some point in the late 1970s or early 1980s to commemorate the life and passing of Pre, we obtained this one in a large lot of vintage Nike posters from a collector in Oregon. While there's no copyright information or Nike emblems on the poster itself, we're quite sure it was a local Nike release, perhaps for sale or distribution on race day at the track. Nike collectors and historians will love the full-color view of Pre's prototype Nike running shoes in action! Condition on this poster is excellent - we believe it has never been hung and displayed for any significant amount of time. There are single tiny pinholes in the top two corners, and some minor edge wear from handling and storage over the years. Will display spectacularly in a standard 24"x36" frame! Don't miss your chance at this one, Pre and Nike fans. Grab it now if you need it for your wall and your collection!

Celebrate the career of a true trailblazer! This amazing poster demonstrates just how far women have come in the sporting world in just a single generation. Born and raised in Oslo, Norway, this remarkable distance runner was restricted to competing in just the 1,500 meters race in the 1976 Olympic Games, as women were not allowed to compete at longer distances. Undeterred, Grete Waitz kept at her craft, and by 1978, she was invited to compete in the New York Marathon, and became a record-setting sensation. Finally, in 1984 at the Los Angeles Olympic Games, Grete's dream was realized - the women's marathon was added to the competition, and the 30-year-old Waitz had her chance at long-distance gold. Despite being edged out by American runner Joan Benoit, Grete's silver medal will always be remembered as a part of sporting history.
From Running Past's fantastic historic running series, this poster is perfect for the wall of any marathon enthusiast, and any female athlete looking for a little inspiration. With historic photography from the prime of her career, it will inspire you to greater heights with every glance, and will remind you of one of the most incredible performers in running history. The perfect addition to your sports wall-of-fame!

With relentless work and unbridled passion, Bill Rodgers has lived the life that every other New England runner has only dreamed about. Born in Hartford, Connecticut, hometown favorite Rodgers won the Boston Marathon four times (1975, 1978, 1979, 1980)! He was King of the Roads in the 1970s and early 1980s, also taking four New York Marathons, and even the vaunted Fukuoka Marathon in Japan. A charter inductee to the National Distance Running Hall of Fame, Bill is considered one of the top distance runners of all-time!
This poster features the pinnacle moment in Rodgers' career - breaking the tape at the 1979 Boston Marathon. Running stride-for-stride with Japan's Toshihiko Seko, Bill taught his young pupil a lesson, and on a downhill grade in Newton, he blazed away to an uncontested finish. The photograph used in this poster is an absolute classic, with the pinnacle moment in Rodgers' career captured to perfection. As a piece of history, and as a motivational tool, this is the ultimate item for your wall! Perfect for home, office, fieldhouse or coach's quarters.
