NEW YORK (AP) – A rare 1918 U.S. postage stamp featuring an upside-down plane that was stolen sixty years ago and ended up in Northern Ireland was returned to its American owner on Thursday.

But the mystery surrounding the Inverted Jenny remains: Who stole it and three other such stamps at a 1955 convention in Virginia?
