Print, Photographic

Two black and white photographs of Thomas Edward "Eddie" Tolan as an athlete at the University of Michigan. The first photograph shows Tolan, far right, winning a race against runners from five other universities. Spectators can be seen to the back right. Text on the bottom left of the photograph reads "J. Russell Detroit." A stamp on the verso reads "James H. Russell 643 West Philadelphia Ave. Detroit, Michigan." The second photograph shows only Tolan, presumably during a practice run as he is wearing an unmarked uniform. A stamp on the verso reads "Reproduktionstratt T.H. Modin Torsgatan 25, Stockholm 5 Telefon Vasa 16399."
