Yarım Ay (Turkish: Yarım Ay, English: Half Moon), a family and youth journal, was published between 1935 and 1940 - with some exceptions - on the 1st and the 15th of each month in Istanbul. A total of 123 issues were edited.[1] The owner of the magazine was the Resimli Ay Matbaası T.L.S. which was also responsible for the printing, with Emin Refik Müslümoğlu as editor-in-chief. Among other topics, the magazine supported the women's emancipation[2] as well as changes in lifestyle of that time, such as the transformation of male and female clothing in modern Turkey in the 1930s into a simple, secular style of dress according to Kemalist ideology.[3]
