Magyar Posta is issuing a numbered special souvenir sheet on the theme Cartoon and Fairy Tale Characters using the characters of the cartoon Kukori and Kotkoda, the creation of the writer Ágnes Bálint and the graphic designer and director János Mata. The souvenir sheet designed by the graphic artist István Weisenburger
Kukori and Kotkoda was the first cartoon series to be commissioned by Hungarian Television, with a total of 26 episodes were made of the cartoon between 1970 and 1972. The inspiration for the basic idea for the cartoon series came from a colleague of Bálint, who often complained that her husband was unwilling to do any chores around the house. This is how Kukori, the cockerel, was born, whose laziness annoyed Kotkoda, the hen, in every episode.
