Birmingham Cinemas

Through the medium of old photographs and archive ephemera this book provides a fascinating look at the history cinema-going in the city of Birmingham, from its early beginning as a fairground attraction right up to the present day and the giant multiplex cinema. The reader is taken on a tour of movie houses and auditoriums around the city, including the Kingstanding Odeon, Curzon Hall, Winson Green Picture House and the Appollo in Erdington.
