    Two interesting points from the photo.

    Firstly the Art Deco Cinema designed by Theodore Komisarjevsky. The example of a similar cinema (now being used as a Bingo Hall) is in Tooting, it has Grade 1 listing and the interior is magnificent.

    Dover has allowed this gem to rot. I believe the fantasic interior has declined over years of neglect and I doubt if even Weatherspoons would attempt to restore.

    Secondly. The fantasic pre war Riley (Picture is possibly a re-bodied car). Anyway Riley competed at Le Mans pre war (also 1949 and 1950). 1934 was their most successful year when they had six cars that raced and all six finished the grueling 24 hour race. Finishing 2nd/3rd/5th/6th./13th and 14th.Alfa Romeo winning in1934
