| The five "Mexico 68" commemorative volumes
constitute the official report of the Organizing Committee of the Games
of the XIX Olympiad. Conceived within the context of the Cultural Program's
Projection of the Games, these volumes offer not only a statistical summary
of the competition but also a graphic record of Mexico's preparations and
of the sports and cultural events as they took place. Unlike many previous
Olympic reports, they are designed to be of interest to the largest possible
public, thus serving to advance the spirit of the Olympic movement on a
broad front.
These volumes cover every aspect of the 1968
Olympiad:
I -
The Country;
II -
Plans and Preparations;
III -
The Games;
IV -
The Cultural Olympiad;
V -
Official Souvenirs.
Their production involved the efforts of nearly
200 employees of the Department of Publications and many others associated
with other sections of the Organizing Committee. The graphic content (over
4,000 photographs, 1,000 in color) was selected from nearly 400,000 negatives
taken by more than 100 photographers. Results of the sports competitions
have been carefully revised and constitute the definitive record of the
Games of the XIX Olympiad.
Technical material of possible interest to
specialists and the organizers of future Olympic programs is available
in a Spanish textual supplement of nearly 250 pages containing the detailed
reports of the various dependencies of the Organizing Committee and other
organizations that collaborated in the realization of the Games. The report
is further complemented by the many publications produced by the Organizing
Committee before, during and after the Olympic period.
