Summary/Abstract: The article is a fist attempt at present the correspondence fund of the Yurukovi family, with the purpose of presenting its basic information and general theme in the context of their contribution to Bulgarian publishing in the beginning of the 20th century. The documentary evidence is related to their family’s publishing business and in particular to the sequence “Tapestry of famous contemporary novels” which has not been previously made public in scientific literature.
