The simple yet distinct torch consists of a red handle emblazoned with the Montreal Olympics emblem, and a black 'basket' to carry the flame; the black color on top was intended to make the flame stand out. Exhibits a couple trivial scratches to the black basket. About 1,200 torchbearers participated in the relay, which lasted just four days from July 13 to July 17 and covered 775 km.
