Nice pair of factory-made solid hickory skis from Norway.  Likely 1940s before wood laminations became the construction of choice for cross-country skis.  We acquired these on a recent trip to Norway, and we believe that the skis originated in Lillehammer - the home of skiing in Norway if there is one!

We haven't done a heavy-duty refresh on these - just a scrub down with some Murphy's, a fresh-base coating of tar,  and a dusting of the Gresvig "Popular" side-clamp  leather/metal bindings.  The bindings might be cooler than the skis!!
