2021New English Original bdg. HC. Oblong 4to. (24 x 31 cm). In English and Turkish. 223, [9] p., color and b/w ills. The book includes the research deducted by Mr. Alper, who had an important archive about the historical building and site. The first confrontation with the building goes back to 1991. The relationship which Mehmet Alper and his team established and their ongoing commitment of responsibility and interest with the structure they have monitored over the years have continued with certain intervals until the present day. The main objective of this study is to share archives, documents, and information they have compiled over the years with the pertinent parties in order to speed up the conservation process. An attempt to access all types of documents was made while meticulously researching its architectural history, whereas the compiled data was evaluated in the historical process flow. This research was initiated with written/printed / online scanning of local and foreign sources that produced works pertaining to the orphanage. The architect and his team collaborated with many academicians and specialists who had written valuable articles and papers such as Akillas Millas, Berrin Alper, Çelik Gülersoy, Hakki Göktürk, Oguz Ceylan, etc and the General Manager of the Ottoman Public Debt Administration, Edgar Vincent in order to access Ottoman documents and the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality's Ataturk Library to acquire maps and postcards of the Prinkipo Orphanage. Therefore, this research is an important effort to save the Orphanage's cultural heritage and to convey it to the future with the proper work.
1894Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original color chromo-lithograph map. Folded. Oblong folio. (40 x 50 cm). In Ottoman script. Color lithograph. An attractive map which shows Austria-Hungary land with Venice Bay and North Italy. Scale: 1:3.500.000. Dated Hegira: 1310 = [Gregorian 1894]. This uncommon map of Austria-Hungary in Ottoman script was published in an atlas, 'Yeni cografya atlasi', which was issued in Istanbul in the late 19th century. Ali Seref Pasa or Hafiz Ali Esref. He was a soldier, who was schooled in Paris as a cartographer around 1862. Already in Paris, he published his first atlas with 22 maps, called 'Yeni atlas'. Upon his return to Istanbul, he became a chief cartographer at the Matbaa-i Amire Printing Press in Beyazit, which was the successor of the Muteferrika press from 1727. Among others, he translated the large Kiepert map of Anatolia to Ottoman. He died in 1907, leaving his large project of a gigantic map of Anatolia in 100 sheets unfinished. Ali's name is often misunderstood or even listed as two different people: Ali Seref Pasa and Hafiz Ali Esref. Until the surname law adopted on June 21, 1934, Turks did not have surnames. They were born with one first name and were until adulthood described only as sons or daughters of their parent's names. Later they were given titles such as Effendi (Sir), Bey (Chief), or Hanim (Madam) for higher classes, or they were given names according to their work or class. The names were not inherited by children until 1934 when the surname law was enforced. The mapmaker Ali received names Seref, the honorable, and Pasa, the dignitary.

The press was closed in 1901 and was reopened in 1908 under the name 'Âmire' In 1927 the name changed to State Printing House. The press still exists and is known for publishing school and educational books. Extremely rare. Not in OCLC.; Not in TBMM Map Collection.
