Description: The stamp design features a detailed three-quarter perspective graphic illustration of a massive steam locomotive finished in dark blue and black paintwork with a trailing coal tender attached. The complex mechanical undercarriage, pistons, and large driving wheels are highlighted in high-contrast orange and white line art over a light turquoise sky background. A faint white architectural outline of Budapest Keleti railway station is visible in the upper-left field, balanced by the vertical text "MAGYAR" on the upper right margin. Bold, slab-serif black typography across the base explicitly reads "MAGYAR POSTA", flanked by the face value "40f" (40 Fillér) in the bottom right corner and the micro-printed year "1972" on the bottom-left margin. This specimen shows pristine, uncancelled fields and crisp, uniform comb perforations along all four sides.
