Born in San Francisco, in 1943, I was blessed, to experience,

films shown, in all the widescreen formats, Cinerama, the most thrilling, 3-D in the Great palaces along Market Street. What a thrill. The art deco theatres were my favorites architecturally. Thanks for the fine photos of the Avon in Stamford, not far by. I will certainly pay it a visit, thanks to you'
Kindest Regards, Ron. E.

Larry,
an amazing work of art and love. Born in 1943, in San Francisco, with an intense interest in film at an early age, especially, the technology. I was blessed to see all the widescreen formats. Cinerama, first. Before the palaces were demolished. When a Cinerama film opened, it was a given I would skip school, and arrive two hours before opening. The entire experience was a thrill.
Odd, but I recall, the excitement when hearing the noise of the big amps warming up before the overture began.
Your artwork, brings back many memories. Thank You,
Kindest regards,
Ron
