This tablecloth was brought back from Denmark in 1936 by the donor's grandmother, Anne Christiansen, during a family trip as a gift for her son. The tablecloth was then given as a gift to the donor's parents, Ejner Christiansen and his wife, Arta (Pedersen) Christiansen. A note in the file indicates that the tablecloth was bought at a factory in Denmark. |
