Great picture. And such a great cinema too - probably still my favourite in Oxford, despite the damp.

Amazingly accurate alliteration!

I hear they show 'talkies' on a sunday for a shilling extra.

Yikes. I thought it was a street vendor displaying when his leftover flowers would be on sale. Oy.

Really interesting shot, leaves me feeling like I want to see more of that building.
Great textures with all the layers of peeling paint...great image John!

Nice textures - Keeping the B/W month going strong!
Gary Winters18-Feb-2006 23:13
And, may I add that was an excellent film, too! Good find, John.

This place is still very much open! - ideal for students and fits in well with the Cosmopolitan Cowley Road area.

Not sure whether to laugh or cry since the demise of any theatre is sad I think it has to be the latter. Well seen John.

LOL:-)

Wow.. Something about the window & handwritten sign here. Excellent shot. (I'm thinking this would look awesome in a light sepia tone too)

Wonderful find, great black and white conversion
