Published until 1977 with occasional interruptions, it addressed social shortcomings, bureaucratic criticism, political rivalries between governments and opposition parties, economic difficulties and everyday life through caricatures, satirical poetry and theatrical writing. The magazine also brought together influential literary and artistic figures, including Aziz Nesin, Rıfat Ilgaz and Turhan Selçuk.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cover of this issue, dated November 14, 1946, features a large portrait of Winston Churchill, holding a cigar in his mouth and gesturing with his hands.
