Postatörténet III. sor

The stamps of the definitive series entitled Postal History issued annually depict characteristic or unusual objects and work tools used by the postal service which typify a certain period.
The stamps are self-adhesive in order to make their use simpler and faster. Of the prized artefacts of the Post Museum, devices from the interwar period and the Second World War are shown.

These include a string holder (HUF 70), a horse blanket (HUF 80), a pair of parcel scales (HUF 400), stamp vending machines (HUF 600), a scout postbox (HUF 700) and a Rába AF bus (HUF 1,000). The first day cover shows the current postal logo and the postmark has a stylised drawing of the postal horn.
