A London 1908 Olympic Games bronze prize medal for the men's 400m, bronze, designed by Bertram MacKennal, the obverse with two young women crowning a victorious athlete with a laurel wreath, the reverse with St. George, patron Saint of England, slaying the dragon, the edge inscribed THIRD PRIZE, 400 METRES FLAT This bronze medal prepared for the men's 400 metres at the London 1908 Olympic Games was effectively unawarded due to controversial events. The competition, which attracted 37 entries, was originally scheduled from 21st to 23rd July. In the final the American athlete John Carpenter was disqualified having been adjudged to have blocked the British athlete Wyndham Halswelle in a maneuver that was legal under American Rules but prohibited under British Rules under which the race was run. As part of the disqualification of Carpenter a re-run of the final was ordered for the 25th July, with the other two finalists, both Americans, William Robbins & John Taylor, to face the British quarter miler Halwelle again. However, in protest, the two American athletes refused to contest the re-run and continued to protest the judges' decision but to no avail. Therefore Wyndham Halwelle won the gold medal in the one and only walk-over in Olympic track and field history. The silver and bronze medals destined for Robbins and Taylor were accordingly unpresented.

An early gold F.A. Cup winner's medal awarded to Bill Astley of Blackburn Olympic in 1883, the obverse designed with a football in raised relief flanked by laurel, the reverse inscribed THE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION, CHALLENGE CUP, 1882-3; sold with a press clipping carrying Bill Astley's obituary; and a Player's cigarette card featuring the Blackburn Olympic 1883 F.A. Cup winning team (3) This very early F.A. Cup winner's medal relates to only the 12th year in the history of the oldest football knockout competition in the world. It was also an extremely significant watershed final. For the first time the Cup's dominance by the southern amateur public school sides was broken by a northern working class team, Blackburn Olympic, who beat Old Etonians 2-1 after extra time. It was also the dawn of a new style of football, Blackburn playing the passing 'combination game', as opposed to the public schools' traditional tactics of 'rushing' and 'scrimmages.' In the 1883 F.A. Cup Final was played at The Kennington Oval in London on 31st March and drew a crowd of 8,000 spectators. Old Etonians started strongly and opened the scoring through a goal by their England international Harry Goodhart. But as the game progressed Olympic's superior fitness became apparent and equalized early in the second half through Arthur Matthews. In the 3rd minute of extra-time Jimmy Costley scored what proved to be the winning goal. Jimmy Costley. The Olympic players returned to a heroes' welcome in Blackburn with thousands turning out to cheer their boys and deafen the sounds of no less than three brass bands on the town streets. The team celebrated their success with a lunch at the Hunter's pub. Full-blown professionalism was still a year or two away, but the Blackburn Olympic victory helped light the pathway in the towns and cities of northern England. Reference books describe the recipient of this medal William Astley variously as a weaver and a newsagent. Provenance: by family descent
