I came across this post that @littlest__freckle works with an #archive called Föreningsarkivet Västernorrland, "which focuses on the workers' movement in northern Sweden" so I went to briefly explore it and came across this poster for the "Elefant-Cirkus" from 1897 that has some amazing #typography

I guess Swedish cirkus's were good at poster design in the 1890s!

@liaizon lol. Where did you find this? 😁

@liaizon love it that you found the way to the digital archive of Föreningsarkivet Västernorrland!! Also warmly recommend the digitalised interviews from the 70’ and 80’, made with workers who participated in the creation of the first unions and workers associations between 1900-1950, fantastic stories! Only available in Swedish though, but we’re working on transcribing them so that they can be translated into other languages.

@littlest__freckle @liaizon are there any interview with someone speaking "Anundsjö-mål"?

(My home-dialect that I spoke when I was little growing up in Mellansel outside Örnsköldsvik, but that I lost pretty quickly when the family moved to Ekerö outside Stockholm...)

Nice project!

@Johan_E_M @liaizon interesting, I’m not completely sure - but you should be able to search for names of villages and towns where the interviews were made and where the people were born/lived. Maybe that’s a way to find someone speaking your dialect? :)
