About Postal History V Hungary:

Magyar Posta has continued issuing its Series of Definitive Stamps on postal history, which began in 2017.

 In 2021 five stamps with no value indication have been brought out. 

The stamps of the annually issued definitive series titled Postal History depict characteristic or unusual objects and work tools used by the Postal Service which typify a certain period. The stamps, in keeping with the practice for the series, are self-adhesive to make their use easier and faster.

The series now presents vehicles and artefacts from the period after the change of regime which are still in use today

These are:

 i) an electrically assisted bicycle

ii) 2019 (Domestic), an electric three-wheeled delivery vehicle

iii) 2018 (Domestic priority), an illuminated post sign

iv) 1993 (Domestic registered), a 19t truck, 2019 (to Europe), and

 v) a letterbox, 2004 (outside Europe). 

The First Day Cover (FDC) shows the familiar postal logo, and the postmark has a stylised drawing of the postal horn.
