We introduce you to one such person Naresh Dudani , former News Editor of Indian Express who is an avid collector of magazines since the last four decades and continues the hobby till date.

"My father introduced us to reading when we were children way back in 1963; he would buy Indrajal Comics and Chandamama for us and then urge us to preserve everything we read," says the former news editor of the Indian Express in Ahmedabad, who retired in July 2014 after a 35 year-long career in journalism.
