Postage Stamp - Transport and Telecommunication - Hydraulic lift truck & mail car - Hungary 1964 - Michel Hungary 2013A - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Mail is the greatest invention of mankind, which has connected different countries and continents.

It is a colossal structure that still exists today, largely thanks to the sale of postage stamps, which are the main source of funding for this business giant.

Today, I want to present to you a postage stamp from series Transport and Telecommunication, released in Hungary in 1964 under the title Hydraulic lift truck & mail car.

Many who look at this postage stamp only see a hydraulic forklift and mail cars.

But, in fact, we see a huge responsibility of people who have dedicated their lives to the postman profession.

I know the structure of the post office well, because in 1989, when I turned 16, in the summer, during the summer cankuols, I worked as a postman.

In the work of a postman, there are two main tasks: sorting mail and delivering it to subscribers.

Both tasks are very responsible and mistakes can be very expensive.

I compare sorting mail to choosing a crypto coin worth investing in.

I really wanted to staff 2000 #CTP #miners and yesterday evening I managed to do it.

I didn't know if I was doing the right thing or not, but I treated this matter like a responsible postman who, every morning, must sort the mail. I started buying miners with Liquid Hive.

And, I can tell that apparently all my mail has been delivered to the addressee, lol.

Seeing this morning that the #CTP crossed the 0.6 #Hive mark. I realized that the letter reached the addressee.

Any postage stamp can speak if, learn to listen to them, lol.

I suggest you take a look at a postage stamp from my collection.

Canceled postage stamp

Important!

Please note that the cost of shipping postage stamps to other countries can be many times more expensive than the postage stamp itself, approximately $ 5.5.
I see that it is not profitable to purchase one postage stamp if, suddenly, you need to replenish your collection. It is always more profitable to purchase the entire series, and, surplus, to change, or sell.
If you decide to buy a postage stamp online, be careful. sometimes sellers use stock images. But this option is unacceptable. You need to see exactly the product that you are buying.
If you are afraid that the postage stamp sellers will want to deceive you, you are doing the right thing, do not doubt it.
To get started with this hobby, buy a good magnifying glass, tweezers with flat and thin edges and a stockbook for postage stamps, they will come in handy.
When buying postage stamps, pay special attention to the back of the postage stamp. The adhesive layer must not be damaged.
There is such an expression - How many people, so many opinions, this also applies to sellers of postage stamps. Each of them believes that his postage stamp is in perfect condition, but only you yourself can find the perfect postage stamp for yourself.
Sometimes, a small, white scrap of paper with a round stamp on it and a number inscribed in the center circle can be a very valuable postage stamp from the days when postage stamps were not printed.
The cost of a postage stamp is determined by supply and demand, but usually in catalogs you can see the estimated cost of a postage stamp in Pounds Sterling.
In terms of quality, postage stamps can be divided into three groups: used postage stamps that were pasted on and removed from the envelope, canceled postage stamps that were canceled at the post office, by order and sent for sale, and clean, uncanceled postage stamps. As you can imagine, these three types of postage stamps, their conditions, greatly affect their value.

To be continued.
