Albert Griffiths

(???? –)

Albert Griffiths was a fan from Bradford active in the 1930s.

He joined the Leeds branch of the Science Fiction League at its first meeting in May 1935. He attended the 1937 Leeds Convention and the Second British Convention in London in 1938 and contributed to Novae Terrae and Tomorrow. He produced three issues of a fanzine, The Scientifictionaleodensian, for the Leeds branch of the Science Fiction Association and may have been a founder member of the Association although he was never formally identified as a member at all. In The Immortal Storm, Sam Moskowitz spoke of:

Albert Griffiths' article [in Novae Terrae #18] 'The Future' declared dramatically that if fans put aside 'Utopian dreams' and examined the world of practicability a world beyond their wildest imaginings might be attained.

Herbert Warnes said in a letter to Rob Hansen:

George [Airey] tells me he bumped into Albert Griffiths shortly after WW2, but Albert was no longer interested in scifi and moreover wanted no more to do with it.

He is not listed in the 1945 Directory of Anglo-Fandom.
