Postage paid christmas envelope
POSTAGE PAID CHRISTMAS ENVELOPE
We recommend our Christmas envelope, part of the Postage Paid product family, which
has a stamp imprint with no value indication, to philatelists and people
sending festive greetings. It may be used for correspondence in Hungary. The
front of the envelope and the stamp bear Christmas designs and the envelope
contains a sheet in a matching colour in the same festive spirit for sending
the season’s greetings. The envelope was designed by the graphic artist György Kara and produced by Pátria Printing House. The design of the
envelope and the imprint indicating the value incorporate a guilloche pattern
as a security element. The number of copies issued will be dependent on demand.
The envelopes are available at selected post offices and Filaposta in Hungary
from 9 December, but may also be ordered from Magyar Posta’s online store.
The postage paid Christmas envelope bears the mark
“Karácsonyi
Posta”, that
is Christmas post in English. This means that the item will be sent with the
special Christmas postmark through the village of Nagykarácsony. The price of
the envelope includes this special service. In this way there is no need to
affix a separate Christmas label. Magyar Posta’s Christmas service is only available
during Advent, but the envelopes may be used for correspondence at other times
of the year as well.
