I was told that this was because something in the blue paint either kept flies away or killed them. I would like to know more about this and in particular, what was in the paint? What is the paint made of? Is this kind of paint still in use in Norway?
I am on the board of directors of The Porter House Museum locate
in Decorah, Iowa. Yes, that is the location of Vesterheim, the Norwegian-American Historical Museum.
