PARIS, 2nd OLYMPIC GAMES, 1900
The 1900 Paris Olympic Games were held in conjunction with the World’s
Exposition. They played only a minor role. There were athletes who didn’t
know that the events they participated in were Olympic Games events.
Few items relate directly to the Games. For this reason, we are also offering
items commemorating the World’s Exposition.

ST. LOUIS, 3rd OLYMPIC GAMES, 1904
The 1904 Olympic Games in St. Louis were also held in conjunction with a

celebrated the Centennial of the Louisiana Purchase from Napoleon.
