Márton Tuszkay also belongs among their ranks. His posters are artistic events. They are old acquaintances of the public. {Interieur, 4/1912) Lajos, Kassák. The Poster and New Painting A good poster provides a virtually guaranteed measure of our commercial industrial, political and artistic life. All of the larger companies create their own representative in the form of a poster that deals with market propaganda instead on one hundred thousand human mouths and, with its colours and figures, shouts itself into all seeing eyes by night and battles for its owner's interests by day. (...) It is by nature always agitating but is essentially never restricted. Because a good poster not only means a lot as a business intermediary but it can also be enjoyed and valued as a pure, artistic product just as with a landscape or a portrait.)...) (Ma, 1/1916) Exhibition news. The management of the Iron, Machine and Domestic Industry Exhibition invited the Applied Arts Society to run a competition for an artistic poster to promote the exhibition. The competition was extraordinarily successful because 49 entries were received from 48 artists. (...) The fact that more than twenty first-class works were entered meant that the decision was preceded by a rather long discussion. Finally, the jury awarded the first prize of 480 pengő to )ános Repcze, the second prize of 320 pengő to István Szath­máry as well as 160 pengő going to Lajos Tary for his entry. The striking entry to take first prize uses the most effective modern tools to project the idea of the exhibition before the viewer. This poster is so successful that it is one of the best of the metal industry exhibition posters to date. [Magyar Vaskereskedő, 5/1927)
