Worn by the great Janet Evans at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, this blue Speedo racing bathing suit simply reads "USA" across the front and is complete with swim cap. Speedo swim cap features a prominent American Flag with "Evans" just below. After winning a gold medal in 1992, Evans was given the honor of carrying the Olympic torch in the 1996 opening ceremony, and she handed the torch to the American boxing legend Muhammad Ali to light the cauldron. Swim cap has been mounted on a foam core and is dry and extremely fragile.
