Photo of Oscar Lund
This photograph was sent from Oscar Lund to his girlfriend Emilie Larsen in 1914. He is seen in a boxing match on board the ship Andania in the period of 3-15 October 1914. On the back side of the photograph was written in Norwegian "the cross is me". Emilie's granddaughter Elin Larsen made a scan and reached out to me after the regional newspaper in Trondheim, "Adresseavisen", ran Oscar's story on November 10th 2018.
