Back in the first half of the 20th century a Chicago electrical engineer, inventor, and electrical manufacturer by the name of Ewald Thordarson had, via an agent, bought up all the Icelandic manuscripts that could be found, and they are now part of the Thordarson Collection in the U. of Wisc. Library. |
