Hungary 1916 'Harvesters' Postage Stamp

Hungary · 1916 · 10 filler

This stamp features an allegorical design titled 'Harvesters', depicting two figures reaping wheat in a field. The inscription 'MAGYAR KIR. POSTA' indicates it is from the Kingdom of Hungary. The design, created by Ödön Tull, was part of a definitive series that replaced the 'Turul' series.

Issued during World War I, this series represented a shift in Hungarian stamp design towards national themes like agriculture, industry, and parliament, moving away from the previous mythological symbols.
