Clipping collections from Scandinavia (except Sweden) (including Norway, Denmark and Finland)

In early November 2006, AFU received an email from Roald Berthelsen, who had recovered a clipping collection in his cellar, while cleaning out. He asked us if we were interested - of course we were! The collection spans the time 1954-1964 and has materials on several interesting Norwegian, a total of about 60 articles.
Kalevi Mikkonen, a Finnish ufologist of long standing, has decided, in 2006, to donate large parts of his collections to AFU. Clas Svahn has received a big file of Finnish clippings connected to UFOs and ancient astronauts, which he has now ordered and glued
on paper sheets to form twelve file folders. The collection covers the years 1947 through 1996. Finnish books and UFO report investigations are also on the way from Finland to Clas, and will eventually 'land' on the AFU shelves. Kalevi Mikkonen has previously donated a microfilm copy of the official Finnish ghost flier material (1930's). Neighboring Finland has for many years been 'a dark spot' on our map, a situation we are slowly recovering from!
