Looking at Olympia programs in chronological order, you can see not only how the booklets have changed but also how the Olympia itself evolved: from a small men’s contest in a crowded lineup of shows (always in New York City) in the ’60s to a prestigious, stand-alone men’s contest (held in different locations around the globe) in the ’80s and ’90s to a fitness celebration with multiple male and female competitions this century (held, until recently, in Las Vegas).
