Ramu; Cheriya manushyanum Valiya lokavum; G Aravindan

Hai all,
Yesterday, my thoughts were on MOCO. Today, its on "Ramu".
I have a friend Ramu. He is just 1 year old, and my neighbor. A cute smart "sundaran" ofcourse !
But I am now talking not about baby Ramu, but about "Ramu", the great character created by the genius G Aravindan.
Sri. G Aravindan, the famous Malayalam film maker/director, was not only a film maker; he was well known as a Cartoonist, even before he entered film making.

My family was fans of the "Mathrubhoomi Weekly". During 60s and early 70s, when I was a school student, our main attraction in Mathrubhoomi were (1) Ramu and (2) Novels, translated from English or Bengali. I remember the days when "Dracula", the horror novel's malayalam version, was being serialied !
Ramu was the focal character in the cartoon serialised, on the last page of Mathrubhoomi weekly. Ramu's creator, Sri. G. Aravindan, was from our town , and a friend/ class mate of my uncle. This too prompted us to closely watch and study the cartoon serial. Moreover, my second uncle, who was a voracious reader, used to explain the intricacies and meanings of what Sri. Aravindan conveyed through his character Ramu.
The series was titled " Cheriya manushyanum Valiya lokavum" { Small man and big world }.

In 1978, a local book publisher at Trivandrum, compiled the serial cartoons ( but was not complete) and published as a book. I have a copy of that collection with me. Today, I traced that gem from my library( I pity myself, my library is in a very bad shape. No order, not protected, and NOT in good shape ! I must act immediately to safe guard my gems !!).

I would like to show you a few specimen pages, and some pictures. That's those pictures above.
Any comments ?
