Golden oldies - 10 chapters from Second Canto of Bhagavatam

In the early days of ISKCON Press, the first major push was to get Krishna Book ready for publication. We did all the work on it ourselves but the actual printing was done by Dai Nippon in Japan. As work on Krishna Book finally came to completion, our next major project was Nectar of Devotion, but while that was happening, Srila Prabhupada commissioned us to also print the ten chapters of the Second Canto of Srimad-Bhagavatam in separate individual softbound editions. The books were entitled:

1. The First Step in God Realization

2. The Lord in the Heart

3. Pure Devotional Service, the Change in Heart

4. The Process of Creation

5. The Cause of all Causes

6. Purusha-sukta Confirmed

7. Scheduled Incarnations with Specific Functions

8. Questions by King Parikshit

9. Answers by Citing the Lord's Version

10. Bhagavatam is the Answer to all Questions

Eventually, of course, the entire Srimad-Bhagavatam was printed, one Canto after another, and the 10 chapter books from the Second Canto went out of circulation. Here's a photo of one of those "golden oldies."
