The collectible—a 1969 commemorative edition of The Hindu—offers a rare window into Gandhi’s life and legacy, featuring iconic photographs: leading the Salt March at Dandi (1930); engaging with Jinnah; addressing mill workers in Lancashire (1931); reading letters at Mani Bhavan (1934); conferring with Nehru during the Quit India Movement; taking a morning walk at Juhu Beach (1944); and collecting contributions for Dalits on a tour of southern India (1946). Alongside these visuals are faithfully reproduced pages from The Hindu’s historic coverage, including the original reports on India’s Independence (1947) and Gandhi’s assassination (1948). Featuring rare editorials—such as the newspaper’s first piece on Gandhi (1896)—as well as his own communications with the paper, the reprint offers an intimate blend of journalism, archival memory, and personal insight into the Mahatma’s journey, making it a true collector’s keepsake. The edition also includes a special supplement from October 2, 2003, released during The Hindu’s 125th anniversary.
