Temme was a two time Olympian and a superb long distance swimmer and was the first man to swim across the English Channel both ways, from France to England on 5 August 1927 and from England to France on 18 August 1934. This photo was presented to William Martin, his friend and colleague, for helping him train for his successful Channel crossing. Hand written across the photo 'To Bill, in appreciation of his efforts. av: Trainer friend on my successful attempt on the Channel. 18/8/34. Ted.'
