Monument to Industrial Production

Under Review

Description: This vintage definitive postage stamp from the Hungarian People's Republic features an engraved landscape illustration of the Mályi Téglagyár (Mályi Brick Factory). Printed in a monochromatic terracotta-orange ink, the composition showcases the long, multi-tiered facility architecture alongside its towering industrial chimney stack and heavy transport conveyor frameworks. The denomination "30f" (30 fillér) is neatly boxed in the upper-left layout. The factory identification text "MÁLYI TÉGLAGYÁR" runs cleanly along the upper right inner border, while the formal state postal title "MAGYAR POSTA" stretches broadly across the baseline. A wavy, vertical postmark cancellation splits the center of the perforated design.

Circa: 1950s

Condition: Used - Hinged

Notes:

Located near Miskolc, the Mályi brickworks represented a crucial pillar of the Hungarian Five-Year Plan. Bricks generated by this specific factory were dispatched nationwide to rapidly construct the socialist apartment blocks, factories, and civic projects pictured elsewhere in this definitive series.
