Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning (GHT) was a daily newspaper published in Gothenburg, Sweden, from 1832 to 1985.
GHT was founded in 1832 by publisher Magnus Prytz and had a liberal alignment from the later part of the 19th century after Sven Adolf Hedlund became editor in 1852.[1] The author Viktor Rydberg worked for the newspaper and several of his novels were published as series in the paper.[1]
During World War II, GHT was one of few Swedish newspapers that held a decidedly anti-Nazi profile, which made its editor-in-chief (since 1917) Torgny Segerstedt a controversial figure in neutral Sweden.[2] The Norwegian illustrator Ragnvald Blix became known for his anti-Nazi caricatures published in the paper during that time under the pseudonym "Stig Höök".[1] The paper ceased publication in 1985 (but was only published weekly 1973-1984).[3]
