Hungarian Socialist Realist Architecture

Under Review

Description: : This monochromatic sepia-toned Hungarian postage stamp depicts the newly constructed central long-distance bus station in Budapest. The visual layout prominently features a large two-story functionalist transit building highlighted by extensive glass panel window grids and a flat, overhanging concrete roof structure. A retro passenger bus is positioned directly in front of the main terminal entrance bays where travelers gather on the tarmac. Heavy block lettering text along the lower border reads Magyar Posta, while the specific geographic location and the numeric denomination are cleanly framed in opposite top corners.

Circa: 1953-1954

Condition: Used
