La primera sueca

Ángel Palomino, Carta abierta a una sueca (1974) lists various types of Swedish girls, whose presence on the Spanish costas in the 1960s was crucial in many Seat 600 purchase decisions: “suecas suecas, suecas inglesas, suecas francesas, suecas alemanas, incluso españolas. Que a su vez se subdividen en diversas clases: la sueca veinteañera y cimbreada, la ‘fetén’, muy difícil de ligar; la sueca ‘madura’ en todos los sentidos de la palabra; y la sueca ‘desesperada’, que el autor le recomienda no coger en auto-stop si se la encuentra por las carreteras del Sur.” But who was the first? What was her name? Was the whole phenomenon the creation of Bert Milton Sr?

   She was a Viking, which sounds Norwegian to me, but I think there may be something in your theory.
