Hi Everyone, Can anyone tell me what exactly is going on in this stamp? Looks like a car almost ran over a person on a bike but I am not sure, and I tried a translator online with no luck on what it says. Thank you! SueStamps  |

Sue Stamps, looks like the Bicycle does not have a tail light for the car driver to see! |

Again, a Google translation from the Hungarian language suggests the caption reads "Lights on the Bike!" |

Thanks for the translation and comments. I never really thought that the arrow was pointing right at a place on the bike where there should be a tail light. Thanks for pointing that out.
I love stamps like this where they "puzzle" me. lolol... Have a good day everyone!

The guy in the car could be saying, "Sorry mack, but I heard that the post office is giving away a free beer with the new stamp issues for the first 50 people who show up and I heard #49 just left!".

LOL... Well since I like stamps AND beer, you'll see me in line! I wonder if there is a stamp that shows any alcoholic beverages! SueStamps |

However, it doesn't mean that other countries haven't isssues stamps with alcoholic beverages depicted on it ... take this one from the Czech Republic which shows a glass of wine:  |

This series (1973)was issued to publicize traffic rules. This one says 'Light your bicycle'. The crosswalk issue you posted elsewhere says 'Let's be Friends in Traffic'. And there's a third that says 'Not even one drink'. Love to see that one.
They are Scotts# 22447-2249.
I love the 1950s style illustrations, even though they are from the 70s. Brought to you from behind the iron curtain. |

Thanks for the info regarding USA with alcoholic beverages on them. I don't believe I have a stamp with a glass of wine on them. I need more stamps! Thanks again! SueStamps |

Thanks so much for the link. I did not know this was a set of 3. I wish I had the other one. I have duplicates of each of the ones I posted though. SueStamps |
