Mark description

The mark consists of an orange background with images of male athletes twirling flags. The image of the athletes with flags is bordered by a square, black dotted line. Running from right-to-left across the image are two curved orange streamers outlined in black. The most prominent athlete has brown hair, brown skin, black features and outlining and has his right arm bent above his head. He is holding a black and orange pole connected to an arched light blue flag with a yellow stripe outlined in black. To his left is the face of another athlete with black hair and features and brown skin who is holding a dark blue flag with a red stripe flanked by two white stripes outlined in black. Behind him is a portion of a red and white striped flag outlined in black; a partial dark blue and white striped flag outlined in black, and the corner of a white flag outlined in grey. Below that is a partial red flag with a partial white cross outlined in black; the corner of a dark blue flag with a white cross outlined in black; a red flag with a dark blue cross outlined in white outlined in black; and a white and black flag outlined in black. Below that is another man with brown skin and hair with black features and outlining holding a flag up. Behind that man is a green and brown flag outlined in black; a red flag with a dark blue stripe bordered by white stripes outlined in black; and behind that is a mixture of red, yellow, dark blue, and white flags outlined in black. At the bottom of the design are thirteen legs and feet belonging to athletes who are obscured by the flags. Partial flags in red green and white, black and yellow and black, yellow and red all outlined in black appear between the obscured legs and the light blue and yellow flag. The background of the image is white at the bottom, and brown-streaked grey at the top left and top right portions. On the orange background, at the bottom, are the words, written in white stylized letters, "JEUX OLYMPIQUES". Below that are the words "STOCKHOLM 1912", which is flanked on either side by a white, three-pointed stylized star design. Below that are the words "LE 29 JUIN - 22 JUILLET".
