I have seen poster printers credited a few times in old films, but this is the earliest I am seeing actual creative people named.

From Ujala (1959).

"Daughter of a famous stage and screen actor (Mr. Asgar Hashab Kashmiri) in the silent era. "Sona" acted as a child artist (under the name : Baby Shobha) in a few films like Sujata, Barsat Ki Raat, etc. Acted in a few films as an adult. Her marriage to Smuggler Haji Mastan caused a stir in the industry and press went berserk."

Recently I bought the book, "Dancing Women Choreographing Corporeal Histories of Hindi Cinema" by Prof Usha Iyer, published by the Oxford University Press. Happy to see my book on Edwina being referenced.

That n.p. apparently means No Place. You see I have been writing

professor toofaani publishers

as the publisher. In all new books, I am writing

professor toofaani publishers, Lansing, MI US

so that people who give references can write a place name also.
