For the first time, the article analyzes the most authoritative almanac of Russian Constantinople "Farewell" (1923), also known as "Thank you" ("Spassibo"). The beautifully illustrated edition was published in Russian, French and English. It reflected the significant results of the intensive social and cultural life of the Russian emigration in the Turkish capital over a short historical period (1920–1923). Particular attention is paid to the large international team of authors that in a short time managed to show the specific features of the first center of the Russian diaspora in the almanac.
