A paper-only publisher presenting a tiny catalogue of Delhi field books, handbooks, and disappearing-street records.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-30 issue.

Why it surfaced

Mayavi Press refuses the usual digital publishing promise: “We do not ship pixels,” and says its books vanish when the stock does. The catalogue includes a 48-page field guide to Delhi’s Yellow Line gullies, a 96-page handbook for getting lost, and a forthcoming letterpress edition of 300.
