Die Koralle : März 1930 : Ullstein Verlag : Berlin : Deutschland : magazine cover - Zeitschriftencover
The cover to the March 1930 issue of the Ullstein group's illustarted magazine for those interested in nature and technology. Sadly uncredited here this striking cover sees a group of hyperboloid concrete cooling towers with various items of pipework in the foreground.
A few weeks ago, during a few days in Berlin, I spent a marvellous day catching up with friends. During the perambulations I finally managed to visit the Ullsteinhaus, the magnificent late 1920s publishing house built for the Ullstein Verlag and that now houses various activities. It is a wonderful structure and there is the smallest display of items relating to its printing past.
Die Koralle was a monthly magazine first issued in 1925 and was published by the famous Ullstein company who produced numerous such colour magazines on the photogravure process on their presses. The company's Jewish founders and owners were subjected to forced expropriation by the National Socialist dictatorship and the concern became the Deutscher Verlag in 1937 publishing material connected with the NSDAP. Die Koralle, the popular science and technology magazine, lost its focus under the new regime and became simply a popular magazine that ceased publication in 1944 under wartime conditions.
