About This Item
Lviv: Ukraine'ka presa, 1934-1937. 23x16 cm. In contemporary covers with handwritten title; most original illustrated wrappers preserved. Spots and water stains occasionally, some images hand-colored, no covers of 1932 issue.
Bound set of original interwar children's monthly 'Dzvinochok' published in Lviv in 1931-1939. The periodical was regenerated in small town Rogatyn in 1993.
Some cover designs are attributed to well-known graphic artist and caricaturist Edvard Kozak (1902-1992). In 1927-1944, the artist designed hundreds of books and periodicals. He worked under pseudonyms: Eko, Mamai, Hryts Zozulia, Maik Chichka, Avenir Lushniak, Kosy. In particular, at that time he collaborated with the concern "Ukrainska presa" [Ukrainian Press], also known as Ivan Tyktor Concern, by the name of its owner. The enterprise founded several periodicals and book series targeting different audiences - 'Dzvinochok' was among them. This edition was announced as an all-Ukrainian educational, historical, cultural and entertainment magazine for preschool and school-aged children. Its editor-in-chief and publisher was the wellknown Ukrainian writer Yura Shkrumelyak (1895-1965).
Issues feature lots of group photographs of West Ukrainian children, including stage performers and kindergarten groups. Also, a picture of Canadian Ukrainian children was shown in one issue. The magazine published fiction stories, poems, lyrics of songs and music scores, educational riddles, plays for performances. Occasionally, a small section of studying English and German languages was added. In September 1939, Soviet forces entered Lviv and destroyed the editorial office of the magazine. 'The Little Bell' was closed.
