A Stable Journal of Humor: Caricature

This study is about the Cartoon Magazine, which was published by Sedat Simavi between 1936-1949. He takes it as a problem that the magazine reflects the period in which it was published and that the determination of its place in the period was not dealt with beforehand. The study, which aims to introduce the magazine in general, is also aimed to shed light on the period in which it was published. It was aimed to reveal whether the magazine is not only facing the country but also facing the world. Before this study on the Cartoon Magazine, there was only one bibliography study. Apart from that, the fact that there is no study on its content constitutes the importance of the magazine. The magazine is a long-running magazine with 640 issues published over 13 years. The monographic method was determined as the method. Since there were too many numbers for many years, a 100-number sample was taken with a random sample and the monograph was applied to this sample. The data were collected by going to various libraries in line with the selected sample and taking pictures of the magazines. As a result of the study, it is noteworthy that the magazine managed to become a longrunning magazine even though it coincided with the Second World War. At the same time, it has been determined that it has an important place not only in the country but also in the world, with the news it gives from both the world and the country. The fact that it survived on its own terms in terms of state support is among the other findings.
