Photographer's ticket for the Opening Ceremony of the 2022 Olympics. Along with collecting Olympic photography I also collect items related to the photographers, including credentials, vests, badges and patches. Unlike pro sports the photographers need tickets along with their credentials at the Olympics. This prevents too many photographers from attending events since their shooting areas are usually defined. The oldest photographer identified tickets I have and have seen are 1948 London. Prior to that there are press tickets or no defined tickets. Some of the games after 1948 did not have photo identified tickets. 1972 Munich and 1976 Innsbruck used press tickets. 1996 Atlanta used 'Accreditation Required' tickets.
