Selling Ann Bridge’s The Ginger Griffin in 1934

Posted: June 8th, 2017 | No Comments »

I came across this wonderful advert from 1934 for Ann Bridge’s novel of Peking ex-pat life The Ginger Griffin…if you haven’t read it then do.

Odd though that they should choose to stress that The Ginger Griffin is “far richer” than her first, Peking Picnic – which is also a fantastic novel and sold plenty and won prizes.
