Athlete with Trophy and Medals


And the winner is . . . (a person or a team winning or with an award/medal/prize)--a photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.
The athlete in this real photo postcard is standing next to a pedestal that holds a trophy, and nine medals are pinned to his chest (mouse over the photo to see a close-up of the trophy and medals).
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out the inscription on the trophy (except for a possible identification of the year—1914 or 1919), and the medals haven't yielded much information either. Judging by the man's clothing and the outline of a runner in the design of one of the medals, however, I take it that he participated in running competitions or other track and field events.
Anyone else recognize this fellow (if he happens to be a famous athlete) or the type of medals he's wearing?
