In the The Public Domain Review I came across a collection of Covers from Cerîde-i Adliye, a Turkish Law Journal (1924–26). The covers include some extraordinary visualizations. Check it out.

There is an essay on Measure of Justice: Covering the Cerîde-i Adliye Covers that discusses the covers and an exhibition of them.

The research exhibition “Speak to the Eyes: Visualizing Information from the Ottoman Era to the Republic” curated by Ömer Durmaz studies information visualization with a specific focus on the Late Ottoman and the Early Turkish Republic periods while also taking into account the history of informational design in the West.
