The second part of the study on the collection of the securities of the Museum is dealing with the graphical, typographical appearance. At first the study summarizes the informations in connection with the issue and circulation (denomination, nominal value, signatures ). The entries that were signed on the securities after the emission, just like the nostrification stamps, the changes in the nominal value and possessions and the different signs of depositions, have special importance because they are documenting their individual life. Afterwards the study deals with the printing and graphical ornamenting of the securities. They were intended for long term investments, moreover they were objects of sale and purchase. The issuers wanted to manifest their documentary evidence and value even with their outer appearance. In most cases only the fine typography and the handsome framing were able to fulfill this requirement, however there are several papers with different types of figural decoration. The most common ornaments of Hungarian historical securities - mostly shares - were allegorical female figures or the displaying of Hermes with the emblems of economics. Ornaments related to the issuers, just like factories, banks or the countryside and the coats of arms of the settlements and towns dealing economical work, are also common types of decoration. It was frequent to combine the different elements of decoration, but the typography was alawys placed on the right. The graphical elements of the Hungarian securities were developed in the 19th century considerably iniluence by the Austrian papers. In the third part of the last century consolidated iconographical types of ornamentations appeared owing to the fact the majority of the Hungarian securities were printed in certain big printing houses of Budapest. Their iconographical types determined the decoration of the Hungarian papers for decades. The modern art styles of the 20th century like art nouveau were frrst represented on securities only after the First World War in modest measure. In the 20th century the graphical elements of the Hungarian securities remained classical and somehow conservative compared to the Latin countries and the states of Balkans, where decorations often pushed text into the background. 175
