Hi all.
After digging around, my dad managed to lay his hands on the following couple of pictures of the old Tower cinema in West brom. WHAT A PLACE!!!! Real Art Deco cinema, Gala bingo would have had a field day with this one!!!
Quote from his email "Attached are a couple of photos of the cinema that I was telling you about I went to as a child and right up to the time I started going out with your Mum in the 1960's.
Went there three times in a week in about 1958 to see Elvis Presley in Jailhouse Rock.
Gorgeous Art Deco building pulled down by the usual misguided town planners and replaced with rubbish. In one photo is the Clock Tower which is still standing and a lovely old church which is not."
Anyone else got any memories of this place?
