Pearl & Dean Commercials from 50s movie theatre

Thanks for that extra info,wondered where the end bit had gone !!! Will check your extra info ,thanks.

Thanks for your info ,David about the Music in Pearl & Dean Titles, very helpful.

Glad to be of help, Jeanniedee, but the contents of of Final Frontiers on that website you found are incomplete. The CD has Grand Vista 1 and Grand Vista 2 (the Pearl & Dean closing music), whereas the website only seems to have part one of Grand Vista. I bought my CD direct from The Robert Farnon Society. They may still have a copy in stock.

The Pearl and Dean music on the opening titles here, which were used from 1953 to 1968, is called Grand Vista, composed by Trevor Duncan. It was issued on a CD of Duncan's music a few years ago, called Final Frontiers. I don't know whether it's still available though.

mmm Quosh takes me way back

Hmmm, no cartoon?  :-)

And not to be hard done by, you also sometimes got " Mining Review" tooo !!
Plus sometimes a L & H short , our gang comedy, or 15min musical short , all for 1/6 to 3/9

At least you get something extra, we Americans nowadays get nothing but ads we'd already see on TV anyway. We need to bring back the newsreel and cartoon! :-)

Well, the convertible in the ice cream advert was a'53 or '54 model. And now worth a bomb..

Where is the heck did you get these from... talk about cinema history
