Provenance |
This game was brought back from Denmark after a trip by the donor's father Einer Jensen (b. Oct. 24, ca. 1890, d. Oct. 1992 or 1993). He and his wife immigrated around 1916, and farmed in Minnesota. Einer went back to Denmark nine times throughout his lifetime. He stayed for an extended period between 1920 and 1924 when he rented a farm. He went broke and returned to the U.S. |
