The African Games were originally the brainchild of Pierre de Coubertin, the man responsible for the 1894 revival of the Olympic Games and the founder of the International Olympic Committee. After several failed attempts to launch the Games, they finally began in 1965 in Brazzaville. This poster marks that first edition of the Games, as well as the event’s official film. The multi-sport competition continues to take place every four years across the African continent, and is recognized by the IOC.
