Extremely rare complete run of all periods of this significant satiric magazine published and closed irregularly during a wide and turbulent period, starting with the dethronement of Sultan Abdulhamid after the Constitutional Monarchy regime and until one year after the Alphabet Revolution following the proclamation of the Republic. The magazine was named after its founder, Cemil Cem. Cem was a weekly political satire magazine that was first published in the Ottoman Empire and then in Turkey. It was published between 1910 and 1912 (The first series included 43 issues: 28 Tesrin-i Sani 1326 [10 November 1910] - 6 Tesrin-i Evvel 1328 [19 October 1912]) and continued its publication in the period 1927-1929 (15 Kanun-i Evvel 1927 [15 December 1927] - 2 Mayıs 1929 [2 May 1929]; suspended between 1912-1927). Cem was restarted by Cemil Cem in 1927. The same year he was put on trial for the publication of a caricature in the magazine which folded in 1929. Cem was a bilingual (French-Ottoman Turkish) publication that carried both satire and literary pieces. In 1928, with the imposition of the Latin alphabet, it switched to publishing unilingually in Turkish. Cem featured copious amounts of satirical cartoons and caricatures complementing its articles. Refik Halit (Karay) was a key contributor to the periodical. Cemil Cem (1882-1950) was a Turkish diplomat, cartoonist, and journalist who worked for the Ottoman satirical magazine Kalem and founded his satirical magazine Cem. Following his graduation he held several diplomatic posts in Paris, Vienna, and Rome. He published several cartoons in the Ottoman satirical magazine Kalem which was in circulation between 1908 and 1911. His cartoons contained Western revolutionary ideas. Following his return to Istanbul he founded a satirical magazine entitled Cem in November 1910 which folded in 1912. His major collaborator in Cem was Refik Halit Karay. Cemil left Istanbul for Europe in 1912 and settled there until 1921. Between 1921 and 1925 he worked as an administrator at the Fine Arts Faculty in Istanbul which was later attached to Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University. Cemil restarted his magazine Cem in 1927. The same year he was tried due to a cartoon published in the magazine. After the closure of his magazine in 1929 he became a city council member of Istanbul, but he left the post soon. During the period of the Second Series, satirist Orhan Seyfi Orhon (1890-1972) was the chief editor of the periodical.
