We are not quite sure when they started, but we do know that ABC were making skis, bindings, ski poles and rucksacks in the 1930s, though we suspect the pair we have here in the collection date from a little later – circa 1960. The Norwegians were the major manufacturers of cross-country ski equipment at the time, but as we see here, the Swedes were also in the market. Doesn’t look like this pair have seen much action and would be quite usable right now, but it looks like they are going to be in our ski shed for a while.
