I can see now that there are at least four stamps missing, as indicated by the annotation in the four "empty" spaces. But are there more than four stamps missing? There are three post-war issues of 1945, 778-820 and porto 160; 163-178, according to Michael. Sorted by the color of the paper. At first glance, I do not see two more porto with a black overprint of 12/8 and 20/24. Perhaps he, like me, liked the huge number of overprints in that period in Hungary, I also got carried away at one time.... I can show you if you're interested. Hungary is certainly good, lately I've grown cold to it, I'm more interested in the occupation: Arad, Banat, Baranya, Laytabanzag, Temesvar, Debreczin...

Hi Anil ... thanks for sharing the Hungarian stamps you've been accumulating lately. A very nice set of pages. Hungary is an interesting country isn't it? They have a very rich postal history and have produced some interesting stamps. I normally just focus on their history and occupation issues but looking at your more modern stamps, I had a quick look over my collection. I thought you might like to see this selection of the stamps they did about Fencing between 1950 and 1975. ![](https://i.ibb.co/JqZKptf/Hungarian-Fencing-1.jpg) In order from left to right, top to bottom: Sc. 1002 Issued on May 26, 1952 ... for the Helsinki Olympics in Finland Sc. 1162 Issued on September 25, 1956 ... for the Melbourne Olympics in Australia Sc. 1241 to 1248 Issued July 11, 1959: A set of 8 stamps issued for the 24th World Fencing Championships It’s a beautiful set that illustrates the history and development of modern fencing Sc. 1335 Issued on August 21, 1960 ... for the Rome Olympics in Italy Sc. 1461 Issued on June 25, 1962 ... promoting peace using the biblical idea of 'turning swords into ploughshares' Sc. 1598 Issued on June 12, 1964 ... for the Tokyo Olympics in Japan Sc. 1954 Issued on March 7, 1969 to celebrate the silver medal for fencing won by Hungary's Jeno Kamuti at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico Sc. 2038 Issued on September 26, 1970 ... to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Olympic Committee of Hungary Sc. 2369 Issued on July 11, 1975 ... for the World Fencing Championships held in Budapest They do like the sport of fencing. I could be wrong, but I think the only fencing related stamp I'm missing in this 25-year period is Sc. 1701 - Issued on August 20, 1965 for the Universiade, the International College Championships, held in Budapest.
