Swede's real name was Gust Nettleblad according to the Social Security Death Index.
He was born 3-5-1916 and died 2-23-93, just short of his 78th birthday.
Al Kendell sent me the article on Swede 4/4/00.
It was from the FRONTIER magazine in 1976, not sure of month but Swede turned 60 on March 5th that year.
