History and profile

Çarşaf was first published on 17 December 1975.[1][2] It was part of Hürriyet Publications which also owned the daily Hürriyet.[3] Çarşaf was managed by two cartoonists, Nehar Tüblek ve Semih Balcıoğlu.[3]

The magazine followed the tradition of other humor magazines such as Akbaba and Gırgır.[4] However, unlike Gırgır Çarşaf was published in full color.[3] Çarşaf managed to reach higher levels of circulation, but folded in 1992.[1][4] The last four issues of the magazine were published as a supplement of daily newspaper Hürriyet, and the final issue was dated 2 April 1992.[2]
