Aberdeen Cinemas: Regal / ABC / Cannon
Description
This photograph shows the Shiprow entrance to the ABC Cinema (formerly the Regal) in 1963. In addition to current screenings of <I>It Happened at the World's Fair</I>, the cinema is also advertising an upcoming double bill of <I>The Scarlet Blade</I> and <I>The Son of Captain Blood</I>. <i>Silver Screen in the Silver City</i> (1988) explains that the large, canopied entrance on the Shiprow gave access to the stalls foyer, and this could also be reached from the Union Street entrance via various lobbies and doors. A signalling system coordinated between the front and side box offices and neither entrance was allowed priority over the other.
