| The Vintage Mobile Cinema |
Outside the MICA Centre, West Mersea this morning there were screenings of the devastation caused by the 1953 floods that hit the east coast, in the 22 seat vintage mobile cinema which had come up from Devon.
The bus is the only surviving one of a fleet of seven that were built for the Government in 1967 to showcase modern British production techniques. Today, it has been carefully restored to its former glory and tours the country bringing a unique slice of automotive and cinema history.
Of course it was just up Charlie's and my street...! to see this old vehicle and get a front seat for the archived film.
Wouldn't it be delightful to see it here again....
Have a great weekend.
