The Colossus That Was Bapurao Naik

(Arun Naik, Bapurao Naik's elder son speaks at the Mumbai Marathi Sahitya Sangh kickstarting Bapurao Naik's centenary year celebrations).

My father spent the last ten years of his life in reading and writing. He travelled to Europe and the U.S.A. with my mother. He designed a typeface. Published articles. Managed Kalanagar as chairman. Founded local organisations which are still functional: Sahitya Kala Mandal and Sangeet Sabha. We used to have sangeet baithaks at home. Bhimsen would come and stay with us and sing for my father. As did Kumar Gandharva and Vasantrao Deshpande.

The list of books by Bapurao Naik was printed as back cover to A Ka Priolkar ani Mudransamshodhan in 1976. Apart from the books we have discussed he wrote some articles in major printing journals:

Maharashtrateel Granthamudran Vyawasayacha Vikas (Mudrika, 1971)

Pathyapustakanchi Janmakatha (Nawneet, 1976)

Granthamudranachya Samasya (Mudran Prakash, 1976)

Granthamudranacha Onama (Mudran Prakash, 1979)

Devanagari Lipi ani Sulabh Julni (speech in Mudran Parishad, Jalgaon)

Mudran Siddhata (nine articles in Mudran Prakash)

Book Production & Distribution (Print Bulletin, 1972)

Standardisation as Applied to Printing (Mudran Vidya, 1962)

Small Presses in Maharashtra and Problems Facing Them (Mudran Vidya, 1967)
