Hi Vic and William, thanks for your response, Vic can’t check the newspapers, I live in Amsterdam, and William, I’ll certainly look into those two. I was thinking of the Royal Cinema myself on 608 College Str. within walking distance of Oxford Street. Bit difficult not being able to walk through the neighbourhood. Thankyou both for your time.

Respectfully CC

Perhaps this is the Cinema I’m looking for, checked out the map to see if it would be withing walking distance from where I lived. would anyone know the history around 1970-1975 of this cinema. I see that some of the cinemas have behind them for instances “second run”. If I’m not mistaken this cinema was not only a second run type of movie house but also black and whites.

Seems that some of my post has dissapeared, the Movie House was in the neighbourhood, of College and Spadina.
