Issue overview
Regular series
1001 Macera was a Turkish magazine published by Kemal Özcan. The size of the magazines varies between 13x19 and 15x23 cm. The magazine was released twice a month, without any numbering or date on the cover or inside. Some of the issues list the title of the upcoming magazine and some have a back-issue list inside or at the back cover. There are two variants of this back-issue lists:
Issues 1 to 16
There is an ad for the new "1001 Macera" series in the newspaper "Cumhuriyet" from 30 July, 1943. In "Cumhuriyet" on November 27, 1943, there is an ad for the "1001 Macera Örümcek Adası" issue.
The "Mişel Strogof" I've been reading mentions a film that will been shown at IPEK, the largest cinema in Istanbul at this time: Tarzanin Hazinesi (Tarzan's secret treasure ?). There are ads for this film in various newspapers from May 22, 1944. Which is not entirely consistent with this magazine being from November 1943.

back-list
Looking at various back lists from this period, the first three books quickly sold out. There are things that indicate that certain numbers must have been printed more than once.
The "Kızıl Maske" I've been reading has ads for four "Mickey Mouse" books: "Miki Cokey", "Miki Kampda", "Miki Tayyareci" and "Miki Boksör". In the Turkish newspaper "Akşam" we find advertisements for some of these from Kemal Özcan: January 6, 1945: "Miki Jokey"; June 28, 1945: "Miki Kamta"; December 29, 1945: "Miki Tayyareci". "Miki Boksör" is mentioned at I.N.D.U.C.K.S. as from 1946. In addition in the "Kızıl Maske" issue it says that the next issue is "Avcı Bay Aslan".
Issues 17 to 20
"Brik Buzlar Ülkesinde" does not contain information about the next issue, but the five first winners of the competition inside were named in the first "Bufalo Bil" issue. The rest of the 50 winners are named in the following "Bufalo Bil" issue and in "Avcı Bay Tekin".
