Sammler und Mäzen: Erinnerungen an Hans Robert Thomas zum 100. Geburtstag

Am 21. Februar 1924 kam Hans Robert Thomas weit weg von Weiden zur Welt. In der Oberpfalz hat er wirtschaftlich und kulturell Bleibendes geschaffen. Das hat bis heute überregionale Strahlkraft. Eine Danksagung.

von Friedrich Peterhans
