Here's the most footage I have ever seen of this event and as well as lengthy portions of Button and Scott we get to see their rivals, Edi Rada in mens and Gretchen Merrill together with (rather strangely) Jill Linzee of Great Britain who finished 19th!! We also see practice clips of the pairs winners, Micheline Lannoy and Pierre Baugniet together with Canadian bronze medallists Suzanne Morrow and Wally Diestelmeyer. Amazing historical footage I hope you enjoy it!

The RCAF Flyers famed 1948 Olympic saga began with Senior Medical Officer and Squadron Leader A. Gardner “Sandy” Watson love of hockey and Canada's role in international competition. Upon learning Canada wasn’t able to ice a team of amateurs that met newly-revised Olympic guidelines, he convinced his superiors, including Air Marshal Wilf Curtis, the boys from the Royal Canadian Air Force could pull it off and represent Canada. Despite their mediocre performance in the Ottawa Senior League and less-than favourable reviews in the media, the team of current and ex-air force members along with some army colleagues would go undefeated in Switzerland, bringing home the first gold medal in hockey for Canada since 1932. While Julius "Pete" Leichnitz played in the team's many exhibition games overseas due to a rule that allowed teams to only ice 12 players he was a reserve and didn’t participate in any of the Olympic matches. This is literally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true piece of Canadian hockey history. In this lot we have the gold medal won by Julius “Pete” Leichnitz while representing Canada with the RCAF Flyers at the 1948 Winter Olympics in St. Moritz Switzerland. Designed by Paul-André Droz, the 105 gram medal’s obverse has embossed text with “Vmes Jeux Olympiques D’Hiver St Moritz 1948” between two snow crystals along with the name of the maker “Huguenin” near the bottom edge. The reverse features a raised Olympic torch, with the Games iconic rings in the background encompassed by six snow crystals. The Olympic motto “Citius Altius Fortius” (Latin for “Faster, Higher, Stronger”) arches across the top, with the designer’s initials “PD” (Paul Andre Droz) along with maker “Huguenin” near the bottom edge. In gorgeous condition, accompanied by its original presentation box. An LOA from the Leichnitz family will be included.

The Winter Olympic Games is a sporting event, which occurs every four years. The first celebration of the Winter Olympics was held in Chamonix, France, in 1924. The original sports were alpine and cross-country skiing, figure skating, ice hockey, Nordic combined, ski jumping and speed skating. The Games were held every four years from 1924 until 1936 when they were interrupted by World War II. The Olympics resumed in 1948 and were celebrated every four years. The Winter and Summer Olympic Games were held in the same years until 1992, when the governing body for the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC), decided to place the Summer and Winter Games on separate four-year cycles in alternating even-numbered years.
The Winter Games have evolved since their inception. Sports have been added and some of them, such as luge, short track speed skating and freestyle skiing, have earned a permanent spot on the Olympic programme. Others, such as speed skiing, bandy and skijoring, were demonstration sports but never incorporated as Olympic sports. The rise of television as a global medium for communication enhanced the profile of the Games. It created an income stream, via the sale of broadcast rights and advertising, which has become lucrative for the IOC. This allowed outside interests, such as television companies and corporate sponsors, to exert influence. The IOC has had to address several criticisms, internal scandals, the use of performance enhancing drugs by Winter Olympians, as well as a political boycott of the Winter Olympics. Nations have used the Winter Games to showcase the claimed superiority of their political systems.

Ann Scott (b. 3 November 1965, Paris, France) is a French novelist.
She is regarded as a social realist for her novels, which paint detailed portraits of contemporary youth haunted by teenage boredom, drugs, materialism, status obsession and social trangression. Her second novel Superstars has given her a cult status in France.
She was born and raised in Paris, France. Her mother is a news photographer of Russian descent, and her father, a French businessman and art collector.
At age 16, she moved alone to London, England where she became a musician, playing drums with local punk bands. At 18, she turned to fashion modelling for three years and was one of the first tattooed fashion model to break through in prêt-à-porter and couture in the eighties.
She is now a fiction writer and the author of six novels including Superstars which has become a cult novel translated in several countries. She also publishes short stories in magazines and co-wrote Paradize for French band Indochine for their album of the same title.

The RCAF Flyers famed 1948 Olympic saga began with Senior Medical Officer and Squadron Leader A. Gardner “Sandy” Watson love of hockey and Canada's role in international competition. Upon learning Canada wasn’t able to ice a team of amateurs that met newly-revised Olympic guidelines, he convinced his superiors, including Air Marshal Wilf Curtis, the boys from the Royal Canadian Air Force could pull it off and represent Canada. Despite their mediocre performance in the Ottawa Senior League and less-than favourable reviews in the media, the team of current and ex-air force members along with some army colleagues would go undefeated in Switzerland, bringing home the first gold medal in hockey for Canada since 1932. While Julius "Pete" Leichnitz played in the team's many exhibition games overseas due to a rule that allowed teams to only ice 12 players he was a reserve and didn’t participate in any of the Olympic matches. This is literally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true piece of Canadian hockey history. In this lot we have the gold medal won by Julius “Pete” Leichnitz while representing Canada with the RCAF Flyers at the 1948 Winter Olympics in St. Moritz Switzerland. Designed by Paul-André Droz, the 105 gram medal’s obverse has embossed text with “Vmes Jeux Olympiques D’Hiver St Moritz 1948” between two snow crystals along with the name of the maker “Huguenin” near the bottom edge. The reverse features a raised Olympic torch, with the Games iconic rings in the background encompassed by six snow crystals. The Olympic motto “Citius Altius Fortius” (Latin for “Faster, Higher, Stronger”) arches across the top, with the designer’s initials “PD” (Paul Andre Droz) along with maker “Huguenin” near the bottom edge. In gorgeous condition, accompanied by its original presentation box. An LOA from the Leichnitz family will be included.

Embossed laurel wreaths grace each shank, with “Birks 10K” stamped on the inner band. Hailing from an April 9th 1948 dinner to honour the Flyers, each 10 gram ring was presented by Governor General Viscount Alexander on behalf of the Royal Canadian Air Force.

Camera close-ups captured Olympian champions Barbara Anne Scott and Dick Buttons, queen and king of the ice, women’s Slalom champion Gretchen Fraser from Vancouver, and Edy Reinhalter from Switzerland.
Born in Einsiedeln, Switzerland, Hanz Thorner moved to the United States in 1932. One of the first certified ski instructors in the United States, Thorner operated ski schools across the country, including at the Glen House in Pinkham Notch, Lake Placid, and Mt. Rainer. Settling down in New Hampshire, Thorner opened "The Thorner House" in Franconia for the 1940-41 season. After spending time looking for an ideal ski area, Thorner decided to build Magic Mountain on private property in Londonderry, Vermont, with the goal of having the area “more Swiss than a Swiss watch.”
Opening for the 1960-61 season, the area was to be a ski-in, ski-out resort with plenty of activities. A village was developed at the base of the mountain, featuring hotels and bars. The challenging trails of the ski area had colorful names matching the Magic theme of the mountain. Thorner was known for doing things differently than others in New England, such as importing Swiss ski instructors and having Magic's slopes mowed by sheep during the off season.
Thorner sold Magic Mountain in 1985. He died in December of 2003 at the age of 95.

Winter Olympic Games
The Winter Olympic Games (French: Jeux olympiques d'hiver) is a major international sporting event that occurs once every four years. Unlike the Summer Olympics, the Winter Olympics feature sports practiced on snow and ice. The first Winter Olympics, the 1924 Winter Olympics, was held in Chamonix, France. The original 5 sports (broken into 9 disciplines) were bobsleigh, curling, ice hockey, Nordic skiing (consisting of the disciplines military patrol, cross-country skiing, Nordic combined, and ski jumping), and skating (consisting of the disciplines figure skating and speed skating). The Games were held every four years from 1924 until 1936, after which they were interrupted by World War II. The Olympics resumed in 1948 and was again held every four years.

The Winter Olympic Games (French: Jeux olympiques d'hiver) is a major international sporting event that occurs once every four years. Unlike the Summer Olympics, the Winter Olympics feature sports practiced on snow and ice. The first Winter Olympics, the 1924 Winter Olympics, was held in Chamonix, France. The original 5 sports (broken into 9 disciplines) were bobsleigh, curling, ice hockey, Nordic skiing (consisting of the disciplines military patrol, cross-country skiing, Nordic combined, and ski jumping), and skating (consisting of the disciplines figure skating and speed skating). The Games were held every four years from 1924 until 1936, after which they were interrupted by World War II. The Olympics resumed in 1948 and was again held every four years. Until 1992, the Winter and Summer Olympic Games were held in the same years, but in accordance with a 1986 decision by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to place the Summer and Winter Games on separate four-year cycles in alternating even-numbered years, the next Winter Olympics after 1992 was in 1994.
The Winter Games has evolved since its inception. Sports and disciplines have been added and some of them, such as Alpine skiing, luge, short track speed skating, freestyle skiing, skeleton, and snowboarding, have earned a permanent spot on the Olympic programme. Others (such as curling and bobsleigh) have been discontinued and later reintroduced, or have been permanently discontinued (such as military patrol, though the modern Winter Olympic sport of biathlon is descended from it). Still others, such as speed skiing, bandy and skijoring, were demonstration sports but never incorporated as Olympic sports. The rise of television as a global medium for communication enhanced the profile of the Games. It created an income stream, via the sale of broadcast rights and advertising, which has become lucrative for the IOC. This allowed outside interests, such as television companies and corporate sponsors, to exert influence. The IOC has had to address several criticisms, internal scandals, the use of performance enhancing drugs by Winter Olympians, as well as a political boycott of the Winter Olympics. Nations have used the Winter Games to showcase the claimed superiority of their political systems.
