Premiere Issue of հոկտեմբերԻԿ Hoktemberik, Armenian Magazine for Little Octobrists
- 1925
Stapled magazine, 6.75 x 9.75 inches, sixteen pages including wraps, light vertcal fold, else good condition.
This is the first issue of հոկտեմբերԻԿ Hoktemberik, the Armenian magazine for Little Octobrists, the Soviet organization for primary-age children. It was published continuously through 1950, when it was apparently folded into the magazine for the older Pioneers.
These illustrations are some of the earliest published work by Hovhannes Shavarsh (1908-1880), honored as a People's Artist of the USSR in 1961. Ranging from revolutionary satire to traditional Armenian romance, his work consistently expressed Soviet themes in an Armenian context.
