Unseen Liverpool
Some more 1995 views of former cinemas. The facades may have been photographed, but what about the detailing?????
The Granada, Dovecot
Close up of detail
Surreal pic of the Grosvenor, Stanley Road, Kirkdale
the Futurist, Lime Street, like a ghost town scene?

Philip in case you do not already know, the Liverpool Echo during the 40's and 50's listed on the front page, all Liverpool cinemas and what was showing at the time.
They will be archived in Central Library.
Ah, the Dolphin pub. My girlfriend and I used to go there on a sunday night for the folk club - at one stage she was singing in a group there. Then at the crack of dawn on Monday morning I'd set off back to Northampton, where I was working at the time. We were together for 35 years - she died three years ago.
There was still the odd fleapit that didn't appear, so I suppose the others paid for their entries.
I don't get the Echo much these days, but on the odd occasions when I do I don't seem to see the Woolton advertising.
Someone posted a copy of an old Echo with the cinema listings a while back but I can't find it.
You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.

Check the movie out that is on the Tunnel Rd. Picturedrome. Would get them locked up today.

That was an Agatha Christie book.
Even the book has been renamed "And Then There Were None."
This is an example of what you get when you Google it.
Even history has to be re-written to be PC, it seems.

"Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, (originally called Ten Little Indians) is considered the world’s best selling whodunit mystery, having sold over 100 million copies since 1939."

Yes, they should have just left it as it was but prefixed the word Agatha with 'Honky'

A good idea, Sirob, to give your photos that special effect.
I've just discovered that all my postcards from my flickr site appear on another site, which calls itself a charity, no less!

So, Philip, piracy is alive and in cyberspace!!!!!! I don't know how you can stop it except by watermarking?

I thought it had another title even before 'Ten Little Indians'?That was an Agatha Christie book.

It did. See message 443 above which refers you to a link with the newspaper ad for it.
