Details



St. Olaf’s School was operated as an academy until 1886, when a college department was added. The name was changed to St. Olaf College in 1889. The first college class graduated in 1890. The academy was discontinued in 1917.

This is a very nice 1953 Annual for the St. Olaf College. Full of great photos and important history for that era. Scholastic, Fine Arts, Campus Life, Organizations and Athletics are defined in this thick book.
A Dedication to Arnold Flaten, sculptor / carver. "Arnold Flaten, whose sculptures can be seen all over this nation and also overseas, started out as a pastor. He graduated from St. Olaf College in 1922,
obtained a theology degree from Luther Seminary in St. Paul, and served churches in Montana and Minneapolis before he was asked to organize a department of art at St. Olaf."

Clemens M. Granskou, 1943–63 President of School.

Charming bookplate inside first blank page but not showing owner. No writing that I can find. A tight and very clean book.

See photos and email with any questions prior to purchase.
