Magyar emléklapok webmúzeuma

Online Web Museum

Emléklapok

Digital archive and research collection of Hungarian philatelic commemorative sheets from 1919 to the present day.

About the Collection and Mission

This web museum presents Hungarian philatelic commemorative sheets in chronological order. We define philatelic commemorative sheets as documents commemorating an event or anniversary, bearing postage stamps, commemorative stamps, and/or official commemorative cancellations.

The web museum material is compiled by István Farkas for the IBK website, following the initiative of Zoltán Hevesi from Kaposvár. Uploading commemorative sheets and cataloging their technical data is an ongoing archival project.
