Thank you so much for this information. Never expected such a quick and helpful reply. Maybe it was not Oscar Deutsch but J. Arthur Rank. Anyway, you have provided me with enough facts to do further research and I shall post anything of interest.
Arthur Cohen of Mayfair Cinemas was my grandfather. He also founded Midlands Super Cinemas which, I believe, was a chain of eight theatres, one of them in Bow, East London. The cinemas were bought by Oscar Deutsch eventually, I think.
Can any one help me to find out more about my grandfather and the Midland(s) Super Cinemas?
