In lieu of an abstract:

Located in the Istanbul Research Institute Library archives, this original autographed document is a typewritten letter from Nazım Kıbrızlı, the president of the Turkish Society for the Protection of Animals (Türkiye Hayvanları Koruma Cemiyeti) throughout the 1940s.1 It is a reader’s letter directly addressed to Fikret Adil (1901–1973), a prominent figure in Istanbul’s cultural milieu from the early republican period onward.
