Lord Sebastian Coe signed limited edition print with signing photo Sebastian Coe is one of the great names of British sport with eight world records and two Olympic gold medals during his career. Coe sensationally broke three world records in 1979 in just 41 days: the 800m and mile in Oslo and the 1500m in Zurich. This meant Coe was the first man in more than 50 years to set world records at both 800m and 1500m. The following July Coe added the 1000m record to his list in Oslo, making him the holder, for a short time, of four world records simultaneously. In 1981 Coe broke records again at 800m (Florence) 1000m (Oslo) and the mile (Zurich and Brussels) bringing his total to eight. His 800m world record of 1:41:73, set in Florence in June1981, remained unbroken until 1997. At the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles Coe set an Olympic record at 1500m. He has now successfully led the bid to bring the Olympics to London in 2012. This stunning print shows Coe jubilant in crossing the line to win the Olympic gold medal in 1984.
