In 1996 Kjeld won a distinguished Family business award. One of the points in the summary was that Godtfred considered selling Lego after the tragic death of his daughter in a car accident. Does anyone know when this was?

Well, machine traslators don’t do a great job, but this article seems to indicate it was October 1969. You might be able to get a better translation from someone here that knows Danish.

I actually “thought” I read this page several weeks ago. The original is in Norwegian, but I think you are absoutely right about the date.
