The odyssey of the Heligoland printing plates: Goldner's reprints

In this episode of "Stamps tell stories", we explore the fascinating and complex history of the printing plates for stamps from Helgoland, a former British Crown Colony. We follow their journey from being a part of a 19th-century stamp tycoon's business empire to their seizure by the Nazis, their disappearance for decades, and their eventual restitution. This is a story that reveals the intersection of commerce, law, and a dark chapter of history.
