I learned this site through a comment posted below for this post! Thanks, Anirudh for sharing. Update – 4th Aug 2020: To read the issues online without downloading, check out chandamama.page, it has the back issues for English, Hindi & Telugu. Chandamama September 1955 editorial Most often stories involve animals and magic powers An advertisement for a film roll A story from the Tamil Edition Ambulimama (அம்புலிமாமா) – யார் தகுந்தவன்? chandamama.page You will be surprised on how they saw the arrival of Nuclear Power and the promise of the world with bountiful power. I randomly picked the September 1955 issue and the editorial there caught my attention.
The magazine house shut shop many years ago, but their past editions are now available online for free as PDF. It was started in 1947 by Sri B.Nagi Reddy and Sri Chakrapani, noted South Indian Filmmakers.Ī couple of generations of kids grew up reading, dreaming and enjoying “ Chandamama” children’s magazine, and, its various local language editions like அம்புலிமாமா – of which I was an avid reader and enjoyed reading during my school days. Chandamama was a classic Indian monthly magazine for children, famous for its illustrations, publishing mythological/magical stories.
