Product Description

Using a large collection of old photographs, programmes and advertisements, this book provides a fascinating look at the history of cinema-going in Oxfordshire. Included are chapters on the early days, how the cinemas grew in popularity, and how Oxford itself appeared on screen. Individual entries also give specific details about each cinema. The images in this book, which are accompanied by detailed information and captions, will delight all those who have fond memories of visiting some of Oxfordshire's long-since vanished cinemas, as well as those that still remain in some form or another.
