Pier Pavilion Cinema

This is an advert for the Pavilion Cinema which opened in 1932, but closed in 1933. With the days of revues and variety shows drawing to a close, the appearance of talking pictures saw the Pier Pavilion experience declining audiences. Penarth residents were going to the cinema, there was the Regal (at the Paget Rooms) and Windsor Kinema (now Monty Smiths Garage).
