Cinerama Memories a film i made last year, came from looking through the old newspapers in the archive and took me back to the time i used to visit the Abbey Cinerama Cinema in Wavertree Liverpool. At the time i was doing this research I decided to look at newspapers from further back for the beginning of cinema in the early part of the 1900's in Birkenhead, the name Saronie kept appearing, On returning home i dug out a local published book on the silver screens of Wirral and soon found out more on James Robert Saronie.

I have tackled other subjects that take a lot of research, and so it was to be with Saronie, having his history of cinema ownership in Birkenhead completed, i decided to try a Google search, and found that Saronie had many more secrets, The Scala Cinema, Prestatyn and a book by local historian Fred Hobbs. this book filled in many gaps in his life and, Hopefully when all the pieces fit together his story will be told.
I am looking for any Photographs of Saronie and the Scala up to when it closed and the opening of the new Scala.

Just for the record these are some of the competitions i have won.
