The author examines the iconographic presentations of the Jewish question in seven satirical and humour magazines that appeared in Poland in the years 1918-1939. The Jewish topics were present particularly often in two periodicals with the most pronounced political profile (the leftist/liberal „Szpilki” and the nationalist „Pokrzywy”) and the number of such cartoons skyrocketed in the late 1930s. As for the subjects raised by the cartoonists, seven groups could be identified: 1. acts of aggression against the Jewish population, especially in the first years of the evolution of the Second Republic and the fighting over its borders; 2. the question of economic activity of the Jewish minority in Poland; 3. the attitude of the Polish government to the Jews; 4. the attitude of the nationalist milieux to the Jews; 5. and of the students following the former; 6. international Jewish emigration projects; 7. from 1933, the situation of German Jews under Adolf Hitler’s rule. Jewish topics were presented in the cartoons in particularly many contexts. Treating the Jews as a certain coherent ethnic and religious community, their authors presented them in the cartoons both in a positive and a negative light. In most of these iconographic messages, there was probably more kindness, and quite often also sympathy, toward them than there was hostility or even hate.

The focus of the article is a discussion of numerous press publications on the development of the situation of the Jewish population in Germany under Hitler’s administration in the second half of the 1930s. The analyzed material includes articles, reports, columns and press notes that appeared in “Prosto z mostu”, a weekly published in Warsaw until 1935 (nominally it was a literary-artistic periodical but in fact its profile was mainly political). “Prosto z mostu” was undoubtedly one of the most interesting journals released in Poland in the last interwar years. The weekly was closely connected with the milieu of the so called national youth, which in the second decade of Poland’s independence significantly increased its activity and social influence. The editor-in-chief of “Prosto z mostu” was Stanisław Piasecki and among its journalists were leading young politicians and ideologists of a broadly understood national camp, including Jan Mosdorf and Wojciech Wasiutyński, as well as representatives of a much older generation such as Aleksander Świętochowski and Adolf Nowaczyński.

This article surveys the coverage of press advertising and the print ad market in Poland in the interwar period by leading Polish press analysts and advertising specialists who were also involved in the respective trade organizations. They were concerned about the economic condition of the press at large, the legal and technical problems of the print media, and the inadequate understanding of the importance of advertising by the majority of the publishers and the advertisers themselves. Critical analyses were often backed up suggestions how things might be improved to the benefit of the Polish economy
