Erling Haaland paid $134,000 for a 430-year-old Viking kings manuscript, then gifted it to his hometown. He said: “I’ve never been a big reader, but I want people to read about those who came from my area.”
Erling Haaland and his father, Alf-Inge Haaland, quietly acquired one of Norway’s greatest literary treasures at auction: a 1594 edition of Snorri Sturluson’s Kongesagaer. Translated by Mattis Størssøn from Old Norse into Danish, it was the first printed history of Norway and helped preserve the stories of the nation’s medieval kings for generations.
Widely regarded as one of the most significant works in Norwegian literary history, the copy purchased by the Haalands was the only complete edition still in private ownership. It sold for 1.3 million Norwegian kroner (about $134,000), setting the record as the most expensive Norwegian book ever sold at auction.
Instead of keeping the rare volume in a private collection, the Haalands donated it to the library in Time Municipality, where Erling grew up. The book is now on public display, and the donation also funded a reading competition to inspire local children and young people to discover Norway’s history and literary heritage.

The picture of Princess Charlotte, so full of emotion seeing her mother finish touched my heart. Meanwhile, Prince Louis is living his best life just playing with the pup in the background!

@Remisagoodboy Viele finden den Stoff zu konserativ. Nun, Brokat ist nicht jederman's Sache, die zarte Farbe bringt Leichtigkeit hinein und der spezielle Schnitt braucht eine gewisse Stabilität.
Wie immer gut gemacht👏ein zusätzlicher Pluspunkt, Sie kennen den heimischen Stoffhersteller

@Remisagoodboy Alles was Princess Catherine trägt ist einzigartig. Nicht nur die Optik, sondern und das ist der massgebliche Unterschied, es hat alles einen tiefgreifenden Sinn. Nichts ist nur hübsch anzusehen......Mode kann jeder, Sinnhaftigkeit sehr wenige......

The Princess of Wales turned heads at Peter Phillips and Harriet Sperling’s wedding - but it wasn’t just her elegant look that caught our attention. She broke one of her long-standing fashion rules by stepping out in brand-new pieces instead of her usual outfit re-wears.

Remember when Meghan Markle was visiting Mayhew & everyone heard & witnessed her fake moonbump “popping” back into place
A few hours later, Meghan Markle claims she was suicidal & wanted to end it all
Meghan attended an event with Prince Harry at Royal Albert Hall

@MeghansMole Suizidal und trotzdem stark genug um multimillionen Deals abzuschließen. Eine Ohrfeige für alle wirklich depressive Peoples.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle departing Royal Albert Hall after Meghan was “weeping uncontrollably” during curtain calls & used suicide as a method of control on her husband earlier
I’ve never seen a suicidal person look so happy 🤷🏻♀️
My 2 childhood friends who took their own lives were NEVER this happy.. 😢
Backgrid got the pics 😉

@artbyskym Eine unfassbare Lügnerin. Diese Frau bereitete Interwievs, Bücher, Netflix Verträge in Millionenhöhe vor. Das braucht eine sehr lange Anlaufzeit. Wie also kann sie Suizidal sein und trotzdem diese Deals abschließen.

The face of a bully. Yes, she is a bully. The torture she's putting her father through. What she put Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, King Charles, Catherine, Princess Charlotte and the list goes on and on, look at what she's put THEM through! This is a wolf in sheep clothing!

@EarthArmy143 @magnacious @irish_guards Klasse, ihr Post. 😂 Sie haben so Recht. All die Trolle der letzten Wochen kamen aus dem Dunstkreis der Sussex. Ich könnte 🤮da Sie damit ein Vermögen verdienen. Während Kate an Anmut und Klasse nicht zu überbieten ist. Egal ob Royal oder nicht.
