In spite of fears that Norway would be overwhelmed by Jewish immigration following the repeal, only about 25 Jews immigrated to Norway before 1870. Because of pogroms in Czarist Russia, however, the immigration accelerated somewhat in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. By 1910, there were about 1,000 Jews in Norway.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/norway-virtual-jewish-history-tour|title=Norway Virtual Jewish History Tour}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.geschichteinchronologie.com/eu/norwegen/EncJud_juden-in-Norwegen-ENGL.html|title=Jews in Norway|via=geschichteinchronologie.com|website=Encyclopaedia Judaica |date=1971|volume=12}}</ref>

Though the minority was small and widely dispersed, several stereotypes of Jews gained currency in the Norwegian press and popular literature in the early 20th century. In books by the widely read authors [[Rudolf Muus]] and [[Øvre Richter Frich]], Jews are described as sadistic and obsessed with money. The attorney [[Eivind Saxlund]] published a pamphlet ''Jøder og Gojim'' ("Jews and [[Goyim]]") in 1910, which was characterized in 1922 as "antisemitic [[Pornography|smut]] literature' by a writer in ''[[Dagbladet]]''. Saxlund sued for libel and lost, but earned the admiration of the newspaper ''[[Nationen]]'', who praised Saxlund for fighting "our race war."<ref>{{cite book |last=Selbekk |first=Vebjørn |date=2001 |title=Jødehat på norsk – Fra Eidsvollmennene til Boot Boys |lang=no |location=Skjetten |publisher=Hermon |isbn=82-7341-936-3 |page=33}}</ref> In 1920, [[The Protocols of the Elders of Zion]]<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ushmm.org/wlc/en/article.php?ModuleId=10007058|title=Protocols of the Elders of Zion}}</ref> was published in Norway under the title ''Den nye verdenskeiser'' ("The New World Emperor").<ref>{{cite web|url=http://jcpa.org/article/jew-hatred-in-contemporary-norwegian-caricatures/|title=Jew-Hatred in Contemporary Norwegian Caricatures}}</ref>

In 1916 Norwegian writer [[Mikal Sylten]] published an antisemitic periodical called [[Nationalt Tidsskrift]]. In 1917 he started using the [[Swastika]] as its symbol, several years before [[Adolf Hitler]]. The periodical was of a [[Racism|racist]] nature and published [[Antisemitic conspiracy theories]]. The periodical declared itself as the "''only Norwegian journal that studies in depth Jewish true ties to events in the world and here at home''" . An attache called ''Who's Who in the Jewish World'' was printed four editions starting 1925. This pamphlet contained a list of Jews and presumed Jews in Norway, sorted by occupation. Housewives and children were listed under ''Different Occupations''.<ref>{{Cite book|title = Hvem er Hvem i Jødeverden|publisher = Nationalt Tidsskrift|year = 1939|edition=3rd|pages =『Det eneste norske blad som indgaaende utreder jødernes sande forhold til begivenheterne i verden og også herhjemme』back of front cover}}</ref> Sylten was tried for his collaboration with the Nazis during [[German occupation of Norway|the German occupation]] in the [[legal purge in Norway after World War II]].
