Four side-by-side photos show a large Viking statue—celebrating Big Ole through the years—in various settings, holding a spear and shield, wearing a horned helmet, red cape, and yellow tunic against urban or snowy, tree-filled backgrounds.

Old pic of the Rotary Youth Exchange posing with Big Ole while he was directly in front of the Runestone Museum. How many thousands (maybe millions?) of people have posed with our Viking king over the years!?
