Scope and Content

From the Collection: The Ole H. Olson Photograph Collection includes an autographed picture dated 1937, from the United States comptroller of currency to Ole Olson; and, a Christmas card family portrait of Ole, his wife, and eight of his children, taken sometime during the late 1940s. There are also two studio portraits of Ole Olson. One was taken younger in life, and another during the middle part of his life. In addition, there are two group photographs. The first is a group of men and women in front of what appears to be a school. The second is a group of men at the 20th annual meeting at the North Dakota Mutual Insurance Association, taken in what appears to be a town hall. Also included in the photographs is a picture of Ole Olson as governor (1934), in front of the State Building being shown a road planer by five men. Finally, there is a photograph of Ole H. Olson at his desk, on the floor of either the North Dakota Senate or House chambers. One oversize photograph is housed in Photo Folio 38, and it is a group photograph showing the Equity Board of Directors.
