London's Cinema Museum

 I subscribe to several London information services. London World told me about the Cinema Museum in London. 

I looked at the museum's website and found they had a shop. The shop sells a tote bag for ten pounds, and lots of pictures of posters. I liked the boy who caught a crook.

You might also be interested in the London Film Museum.  And the Theatre Museum.

A cinema museum is not the same as a film museum. A film museum is about the films shown. If you are interested in films, you are more interested in film locations. 

But you are probably interested in both. Two possible visits.

A cinema museum is about the cinema buildings, the clothes worn by the ushers, the seating, the seats, the ice cream sellers.

The Building

The building was orignally the workshouse where Charlie Chaplin was brought up.
