In 1966, Helen Bregger (Maclaren) was approached by the Postmaster General, Mr. Ronald Raby, and commissioned to design and paint a set of four stamps.

38 The Society of Malawi Journal

depicting the early steamers of Lake Malawi. She accepted the commission and the set was issued on 4th January 1967. The set depict the Ilala l, the Dove, the Guendolen and the Chauncy Maples. The stamps were printed by Harrison & Sons, London. The Stanley Gibbons catalogue mentions that the stamps were designed by Mrs. H Breggar (sic) and that the one shilling and sixpence value is wrongly inscribed as the 'Chauncgy Maples' rather than the 'Chauncy Maples'. The catalogue also lists the three shilling value as depicting the 'Gwendolen', when in fact the name is spelt "Guendolen'. In the 1970 Commonwealth catalogue Helen's name is further changed and shown as Mrs. H. Bressar. Such is the way of the world.

Wright & Greig

Wright & Greig, Wholesale Wine and Whisky Merchants, Cadogan Buildings, Cadogan Street.—

In reviewing the various branches of trade for which the commercial capital of the North is noted, prominent mention is justly due to the wine and spirit business, in connection with which there is no more representative or influential firm in the city than Messrs. Wright & Greig, formerly of 90, West Campbell Street. This business, which, by common consent, is one of the best of its class in the city, was founded a quarter of a century ago in Buchanan Street, from which the firm removed in 1876 to their late premises. So great, however, and so rapid has been the increase in the firm’s trade that they were obliged to choose one of two alternatives — either to enlarge their former premises or take more extensive and commodious ones, and this year they removed to their present headquarters as above.


These premises are of spacious extent, admirably fitted, and completely equipped for the carrying on of a business of the first importance. They have chosen the latter course, and quite recently have erected a pile of buildings, at the comer of Wellington and Cadogan Streets, which rank among the finest and most imposing in central Glasgow. The buildings consist of offices, cellarage, and warehouses. The basement floor is devoted to cellarage, particularly for the binning of wine, and covers an area of 5,300 square feet ; the street floor consists of offices and warehouse, with an area of 3,800 square feet, while on the entresol floor is a warehouse covering a space of 3,600 square feet. The total area of the building thus occupied by Messrs. Wright & Greig for their own business amounts to 12,700 square feet. The remainder of the block will be let as first-class offices.

Her gift for creating decorative slaps came to the notice of the Governor of Nyasaland, Sir Edmund Richards, who asked her to create a second map; this time encompassing the whole of Nyasaland. She rose to this considerable challenge and, over a period of eleven months, whilst standing at a large table, completed what remains to this day probably the most charming and coveted of maps of the Land of the Lake. As reference sources for the many vignettes she created to decorate the map. Helen used Sir Harry Johnston's British Central Africa for the animals and a book by a Dr. Fitzmaurice for the insects. For her pictures of birds she would almost certainly have consulted Roberts' Birds of Southern Africa.

Helen Bregger worked with the unwavering belief that she had been commissioned by the Governor of Nyasaland and that she would be compensated, through the purchase of her artwork, by the Nyasaland Government. To her understandable horror and disbelief, in the event such proved not to be the case.

At this time her husband, Walter Bregger, was employed by the Conforzi Tea and tobacco Company of Cholo (Thyolo). Mr. Ignacio (Puccie) Conforzi, recognising the artistic worth of Helen's cartographic endeavour, came to an arrangement with her whereby he paid her a fee and sent her map to a publisher in London where it was converted into colour separations for publication. In return for the fee and the copyright, Helen received an agreed number of the printed maps for her own use.
