Illustreret "Nationernes Gade" Series
There was a paper model series in the 1918 -1919 issues of the Illustreret Familie Journal called "Nationernes Gade" (Street of the Nations?). Each of the models is a building from a different country. They are small and were intended to be mounted on top of matchboxes. As far as I know, there were eight models total. The model numbers, countries, and buildings are:
I Italy - Italian Tavern
II Holland - Dutch Mill
III China - Chinese Pagoda
IV Norway - Norwegian Farmhouse
V India - Indian Pagoda
VI Palestine - Church of the Holy Sepulcher
VII Russia - ??
VIII Portugal - Belem Tower
I was able to find all but VI and VII on Esben Rasmussen's Flickr albums (see attached example). Would anyone know where I can find the two models I am missing?
