The Gorebridge Community Development Trust archivist Sean Watson is working on a study of Annie Swan, Gorebridge writer of hundreds of books and short stories, a political activist and had a life as fascinating as her written fiction.
In his work Sean is gathering objects of interest, and this Annie Swan Annual has come into the office.

Looking thru it really is a product of its time, certainly with respect to the advertising! Click on the image below to read a shortened version of the annual, with one Annie Swan short story and all the advertisements. Alternatively you can read and download the booklet here.
Enjoy!

Hello
I realise the original posting is a few years old!
I have a few Annie Swan Annuals (tatty covers but pages are intact), looking for a home! I wonder if you, or any contacts, might have any interest?
Thanks
Rachel McWilliam
Hi there Rachel,
Yes please. We can put them in the heritage files.
