Scope and content
Tables at the Viking Smorgasbord sit ready for the restaurant's grand opening April 14, 1951. A large painting of a Viking sailing ship, created by Oke Ockerman, a Swedish immigrant to the Northwest, is seen against the far wall. Tables in this area that can be separated into a banquet room are spaced comfortably throughout the area and are set with white tablecloths and napkins folded decoratively. The restaurant featured Swedish smorgasbord as well as a la carte dinners. (TNT, 4/14/1951, p.C-5)
