Heligoland Collection

The thumbnails will take you to the several pages of my collection. By comparing these stamps with unknown stamps, the collector may find it easier to separate the different printings of the originals as well as separate the originals from the reprints. At the bottom you will find thumbnails for very large images to help with the more difficult issues. Any corrections, questions, or comments will be welcome.
