In 1972, the National Book Foundation was established In Pakistan with a children’s division headed by Meher Nigar Masroor and Naheed Azfar. Perhaps in comparison to books published nowadays, the illustrations in those books were not spectacular, but in comparison to the Urdu storybooks of those times, they were very appealing. Other English books produced from the 1920s to the1960s, such as Heidi, all of the Enid Blyton series, and the Daniel Defoe, Mark Twain and Lewis Carroll books helped to spur my imagination.

Some of my favourite English storybooks were my father’s collection of the Just William series by Richmal Crompton, or the storybooks I started borrowing as a member of the British Council Library at Sarnagati Building on Pakistan Chowk in Karachi ever since I was seven years old. In my humble opinion, the illustrations are quite average. These covers show the easy, straightforward conformations of illustration and titles of the two older issues of the Khilauna and Phool magazines, whereas the newer Phool, that started to get published from Lahore in1990, uses photos of fair-skinned Pakistani babies and toddlers on its covers with highly cluttered compositions. Then there were others prompting the child to think of good traits or the abode from where all kinds of information, knowledge, fantasy and mystery turns up: Naunehal, Honehar, Shareer, Masoom, Achha Sathi, Bachchon ka Akhbar, Nirali Duniya, etc. Another variety of names suggested favourite games, toys and sweets enjoyed by children, for example: Aankh Micholi, Khilauna and Toffee. The names of many children’s magazines 2 seemed to emerge from floral roots: Ghuncha, Shagoofa, Phulwari, Phool, Kalian, Guldasta, etc. There were over 40 children’s Urdu magazines published in India, and post-Independence, Pakistan too had a fair number, but then the numbers dwindled and declined, and presently there are only a handful of them left. There are no images of the inside pages of these two magazines that I could find for reviewing the illustrations, but judging from the covers, one can form an opinion regarding their simple yet powerful compositions in two colours. Payam-e-Taleem, first published in 1937 from Delhi, continued with some hiccups right up to 1988. It was a monthly published from Lahore between 1902 and1906, and again in 1911. Bacchaun ka Akhbaar 1seems to be the first children’s magazine. In the Indian subcontinent, Urdu magazines were the precursor to children’s Urdu books.
Even though four-colour offset printing was introduced by Elite Publishers in 1951, but it came about for wider usage in Pakistan in the 1980s. It was the pre-computer era, and everything was hand-drawn and hand-written. Printing methods were old-fashioned. Unfortunately, I have never used the reed pen or takhti in my life, but we had reasonably good drawing and painting materials available from when I was an art student. Though this was simply for exercises in Urdu writing, it may have had an impact on the art of artists such as Sadequain, Anwar Jalal Shemza, Zahoor-ul-Akhlaq and Rashid Arshed. There was certainly a time in our South Asian history when reed pen ( sarkanday ka qalam) was used on a takhti (wooden tablet) coated with Multani clay providing a smooth writing surface.
