Cash reward offered for single copy of historic newspaper

Last updated Monday, April 9, 2012 - 10:25pm

Today we are going to launch the Wasatch Rambler Scavenger Hunt with $50 of my own personal money for the lucky individual who finds one special item.

No kidding. Cash. Green stuff.

To collect, you must deliver into my hand a genuine copy of the "Utah Danske Amerikaner," a fine publication that sputtered into existence in Huntsville in 1885, dragged along a year or so, then sputtered out again.

The reason I am offering so much money is that this is one of several lost items of Top of Utah's history that I know are out there somewhere, filed away, buried in an album or lining some ancient parakeet cage.
