ON "DE CASTRO" PRINTING HOUSE: In 1808 a work titled Tikuney Zohar was printed at the Hebrew printing press established by Yitshak ben Avraham Castro in the same year. It appears that the press did not publish any works until 1823 when printing resumed. From that year onward books bore the imprint "Yitshak de Castro and Sons." The place of printing was recorded as "el Saray de Ingiliz the English Palace." Castro who did the typesetting of the books in his own home used the English Palace in Constantinople as the printing house. This press primarily published Ladino works translated from Hebrew. Among these were books such as Ben Sira Sefer ha-Yashar and Kav ha-Yashar along with various collections of responsa and sermons. The most remarkable works published by this press were two books written in opposition to Christianity and British missionary activities. The press remained active until 1848 closing after the death of Yitshak Castro. After 1849 two Hebrew printers were active in Istanbul: Nisim de Castro and Moshe de Castro. They are believed to have been the sons of Yitshak Castro and following their father's death each established his own independent printing house. Between 1849 and 1850 Nisim de Castro's press produced three books two in Hebrew and one in Ladino. Moshe de Castro's press issued two Hebrew works one in 1849 and another in 1862. This press continued to operate under the name "Castro Press" publishing two additional Ladino books in 1877 and 1925. In 1853 Leon Haim de Castro likely a descendant launched and edited Or Israël The Light of Israel the first Jewish newspaper published in Istanbul. Meral.
