Summary

Description
English: Original caption: ""Wax for lead; bloodless duelling at the Olympic Games"" "One of the most curious contests at the Olympic Games is the duelling with wax bullets. The combatants are as elaborately protected as a German student duellist, and even the revolver has a large hand-guard. The helmet has a plate-glass window."
