Pole vaulting, French championships - 1920 © Collections L'Équipe 18 July 1920. On that day, in the Pershing stadium built the previous year in the Bois de Vincennes, the French pole vaulting championship was won at 3.60 m. That's already very high when you have to land on sand.

In Clermont-Ferrand, he will become one of the emblematic leaders of the ASM. Inkjet printing on baryta paper. Single posterior print run. Edition 1/1. 60 x 80 cm
