Description

A photograph of the American runner, one of the greatest sportsmen of the 20th century - Carl Lewis signed. with a certificate of authenticity. Frederick Carlton ["Carl" Lewis was born on July 1, 1961 in Birmingham, Alabama], an American athlete and runner. One of the greatest athletes in the 20th century is an Olympic champion, world champion. Won 10 Olympic medals, including 9 gold, won 10 medals in the world championship, of which 8 gold. Set a world record twice a 100 meter run. 4 times in a row Olympic champion in the Long Jump. Won four gold medals at the Los Angeles Olympics, 48 years after the famous athlete, Jesse Owens, did it for the first time. Lewis is from a poor family who, as a young man, had trouble communicating with children. Due to the fact that his parents did not have the money to pay a babysitter, his parents brought him with them to play in the jumping pit in the framework of an athletics team that they had trained. Finally Luis and his sister joined the group. As a child, Lewis was thin and small, and his talent did not stand out. His parents did not expect a future in sports, but nevertheless encouraged him to do what he loved and set himself high goals. Lewis's role model was Jesse Owens, whom he had heard from many of his father, and had even met him at an event organized by his father. Lewis, who was 9 at the time, engraved in his memory the phrase "Spend Life" that Owens had taken out of his tongue, and went in his spirit in his long career. At the age of the brigade Lewis began to grow and grow and emerge from the "weak" image. At the age of 14, he had already jumped 6.01 meters. At the age of 13 Lewis began to compete for a long jump for his school - the Wellingborough High School, which proved to be a promising athlete. As a teenager he was one of the best jumpers in New Jersey, and in his final year of studies he was already one of the world's leading jumpers. A few days after graduating high school in 1979, Lewis broke the high school record by a long jump and set it at 8.13 meters. Lewis dominated the 100 and 200 meters and in Long Jump was almost unshakable from 1981 to the early 1990s. Was chosen many times during these years as Athlete of the Year. He set world records in the 100-meter run [the first athlete to drop 10 seconds and set a world record for 9.92 seconds] and the 4X100 relay. The world's longest jump in the hall (8.79 meters) since 1984. His 65 consecutive victories, over a period of more than 10 years, in the jumping hole, is considered one of the greatest triumphal sports competitions. His many achievements have earned him great fame as well as the titles of "Athlete of the Century" awarded to him by the International Olympic Committee, as well as "Olympic Athlete of the Century" by the popular sports magazine Illustrated. Lewis also contributed greatly to promoting the athlete's status and conditions. Size: 26x21 cm. Very fine condition.
