Here is the next lot of screenshots from my Sergio video collection. This batch is from the 1968 Olympia where Sergio won unopposed. Like the '66 Mr World shots, these aren't the best of quality but are very rare & historic.
Ugh, my retirement grease

Pdvd_054 and Pdvd_057 are some of the freakiest shots out there. Look at his freaking legs! Way ahead of his time.

It's remarkable how few good pics or film there is of 60s and 70s shows; the technology was there but somehow even Weider who was savvy on other things didn't cover this angle well. Too bad, though there must be some decent material out there that isn't widely circulated.

Sergio Oliva - 1969 Mr Olympia

Here's the latest batch of screenshots from my Sergio collection. It's the only known footage of the 1969 Olympia and shows the final posedown between Sergio, Arnold & Franco plus Sergio receiving his Olympia cheque. It only runs for three minutes but it's priceless footage. It's great to see Arnold so happy at taking 2nd place as he must have thought at the time "How the hell am I ever going to beat this guy". Very gracious. Enjoy the pics!!!!

SERGIO!!!!

It looked pretty close between Sergio and Arnold. In that back double bi, Sergio really owned him on width. Great sportsmanship between them both.

I've got that video footage as well. It can be purchased through GMV.
V-147 titled "Mentzer & Friends".

Maybe someone with this and other videos could put this on youtube.com?
