Grip

Total Issues: 13

"Described as a weekly journal for British boys. Main stories by W. W. Fenn. Its vivid red cover lived up to its title showing two hands clasped together. After No.13 it was incorporated with Our Boys. Never have two papers been so closely linked together as some weeks the main title was "Grip" sub-titled "Our Boys" and the other weeks vice-versa. No announcement was made in either paper of the coming incorporation." (W.O.G. Lofts)
