Just posting as an FYI, there's a really cool Jesse Owens related items currently available at auction. It's a bound New York Times from August 1-15, 1936. It has photos and coverage of the opening of the 1936 Olympics and all 4 of Jesse's gold medals in front of Hilter and Nazi Germany. Here's the link:

There are also pictures of the Hindenburg, Joe Louis, FDR, etc, but Jesse and the Olympics are the highlight. Thought you would want to know. Good luck!
