Kilburn Grange Cinema
Kilburn Grange Cinema , a photo by bishib70 on Flickr. Wanting to indulge in some first-hand historical sources, I once bought an old photo album off a well known online auction site. I still have no idea to whom it originally belonged - frustratingly, there are no names attached and I can't identify most of the places in the photographs. A couple of images immediately stood out however: the Radcliffe Camera in Oxford, and this shot of Kilburn Grange cinema in London. I scanned the image to try to establish what films were showing - the only title I can identify is Passions of Men , a short film released in 1914, the very year the cinema actually opened! I have also scanned and posted the Radcliffe Camera photo to my Flickr account, but hopefully I will soon find the time to look through and possibly publish some of the other photos from the album - my contribution to Flickr Commons, hopefully with the blessing of whomever originally took the photos!
