(1) Introduction
LATEST NEWS - Hull Daily Mail
Report - 10th August 2006
Welcome
to my newly re-organised and extended WebPages dedicated to the memory
of one of Hull's most unique cinemas. I was privileged to work as a
projectionist at the Tower, until just prior to its closure. The
information contained on these pages has been gleaned from personal
memories and experiences, the contents of my scrapbook, and from
articles in a couple of books, including Remembering The Old Cinemas Of
Humberside compiled by Bob Preedy. And Robert Currie’s " Last
Complete Performance. "
I am also extremely indebted to Chris Ketchell, of the Hull College
Local History Unit, for his invaluable help and photographs, without
which a lot of the more recent events sourounding the Tower would not
have been included in this re-write. In addition, I am very grateful to
Hilary Byers who is the Conservation Officer for Hull City Council, for
her help in pointing out a number of errors in the original text.
And now, as the lights dim, it’s on with the show . . . . . .
