Piece of paper stapled to the wallpaper's front; looks like note of the last owner:

1986, November 23

This piece of wallpaper belonged to Naemie Haglund from Stoksbu. It was bought for me on action in 1966 in …(place unclear) after an exhibition in Lyustalds museum. At that time I was in military service in Gutiborg. I received this piece in September of 1967.
