Noah’s Ark Genesis 1960s Turkish Book Turkey Illustrated Thumbelina

Anonymous – Noah’s Ark (Nuh'un Gemisi) – Salman Yayınları 1960s Edition – Turkish

Description:

Noah’s Ark is a classic biblical and traditional story centered on Noah, who is instructed to build a great ark to protect his family and pairs of animals from a devastating flood. The story has been retold for generations in religious literature, folklore, and children’s books, becoming one of the best-known narratives involving faith, survival, and hope.

This edition presents the story in a format intended for younger readers, combining the familiar account of Noah and the animals with an additional fairy tale, Thumbelina (Parmak Çocuk). The inclusion of a second story gives the volume a broader children's literature character, bringing together biblical storytelling and a classic fairy tale in the same book.

This Turkish edition was published by Salman Yayınları during the 1960s and features numerous interior illustrations. The illustrated presentation complements both stories and adds considerable visual appeal, particularly for young readers encountering these well-known characters and narratives.

For collectors of vintage Turkish children's literature, this edition offers an interesting example of mid-20th-century children's publishing, combining Noah’s Ark with the additional story of Thumbelina in a single illustrated volume. Its period publication date and numerous illustrations make it an appealing collectible for enthusiasts of vintage Turkish storybooks.
