&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Advertisements and imported articles, undated
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;One sheet (one-side) advertises and illustrates various "Norwegian wares." A double-sided sheet has endorsements "from leading European men" of medication, and also one from H.P. Leachman "of the firm J. Leachman &amp;amp; Son" of Minneapolis, Feb. 12, 1897. A very large sheet issued by Heymann Bloch &amp;amp; Co. of Copehagen, is devoted to endorsements of the medication, but does not mention Andresen. The address of Andresen's firm is given as 1310 Washington Ave. S., Minneapolis.; Added (Aug. 24, 2009) photocopied article from magazine The Spinning Wheel Sleuth (July 2006, no. 53): Alfred Andresen, Spinning-Wheel Entrepreneur, by Michael B. Taylor.
