The Polytechnic Museum is one of the world's oldest museums of science and technology. It was founded on the basis of the collections of the Polytechnic Exhibition of 1872 on the initiative of the Society of Devotees of Natural History, Anthropology and Ethnography.

The Polytechnic Museum has always been a promoter of ideas and solutions that determined the path of scientific and technological progress. Here, devices and objects illustrating the stages of the evolution of technical thought are collected and carefully preserved.

In December of 1991, the Museum was declared an especially valuable object of cultural heritage of the peoples of the Russian Federation.

The postage stamp features the building of the Polytechnic Museum and the logo of the celebration; the margins of the postal block provide images of the museum's exhibits: desktop clock World Clock Pointer, a Talking Paper device, a Russia motorcycle, a vertical Golitsyn seismograph, a Convas-1 film camera, a plasma camera, and a Russo-Balt K12/20 car.
