Unused official 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics torch, constructed of silvered metal and copper, measuring 31.5″ in length and 3.5″ at its widest point, designed by Axiom Design and manufactured by Coleman. The torch was modeled after an icicle and slightly curved to represent speed and fluidity, with a contrasting dull and polished finish on the handle to represent the meeting of modernity with the past. The handle is engraved with the motto of the games, "Light the fire within," and a raised emblem of the games appears near the top. The torch bears trivial marks and wear. A desirable example as it is complete with its fragile glass bowl. The Olympic flame was lit in Olympia, Greece, on November 19, 2001, and began the American leg of its journey on December 4 in Atlanta. The route passed through the past host cities in the United States—Atlanta, Lake Placid, St. Louis, Los Angeles, and Squaw Valley—over a 21,725 km route.
