Året var 1959

Overview

1959 - this is the hot wasp summer, when half of the Swedes stay up 'til three in the morning and listens to the WC match between Ingo and Floyd. Rock-Olga and Rockande Samen are successful and My Fair Lady draws large audiences to the Oscars. Olle Möller is indicted for the murder of Rut Lind from Fjugesta and ATP is hammered through in the Riksdag after Ture Königson cast his vote
