Gripsholm's Winter Cruise 1933.

Lars-Erik Jansson, for many years Information Officer on the Kungsholm and Gripsholm, informs us that the Swedish author Frank Heller (Gunnar Serner) was a passenger on this cruise. He wrote a piece for the Gripsholm Cruise News, called "En rekreationsresa (A Recreational Voyage)". He is sitting in the bar, thinking about his Norweigian detective hero Jan Jotundal, with a black bottle of White Horse as his inspiration. In 1933 Heller published "Irrande vinter. Reseskisser 1932-33" which takes place on a cruise.

Lars-Erik Jansson also adds that the Swedish author Sigfrid Siwertz was a contributor to the Gripsholm Cruise News on the Winter Cruise in 1932.
