Aarsskrift for Danske Kvinders Missionsfond 1919-1936.

This series contains a complete publishing run for Aarsskrift for Danske Kvinders Missionsfond from 1919-1936. The Danish-language yearbook was published by Dannevirke's Trykkeri, Cedar Falls, Iowa. There is no editor listed, but each issue includes a forward written by the DKM president. The yearbook contains brief articles about DELC missionaries and mission topics both home and foreign, and many issues include poems. Also included in the yearbook is a yearly report of monies received from each district, and a listing of monies spent on particular mission projects. Beginning with the 1921 issue, the title changed slightly to Danske Kvinders Missionsforening, Aarsskrift for 1921. Missionsfond translates to "mission fund" and missionsforening translates to "mission society." The society reverted to using missionsfond in the title with the 1922 issue. The issues are in excellent condition and are arranged chronologically.
