A row of women lying on their stomachs across a wooden floor behind Bren guns built for soldiers in combat. All the women have their hair covered and tied up in scarves atop their heads, 1940s style.

Roxy Theatre (1953)

This movie theatre was built in 1949, torn down in 1967. It was located on Kingston Road, west of Lawrence Avenue East, near Poplar Road. (My mom took photo.)

Scarborough Town Centre - Food Court - 1983.

This was back when the movie theatre was at the end of this area, next to the bus terminal, McGoo's Ice Cream, and the comic-book store / hobby shop.

Back in 1983, the location of 238 Augusta Avenue in Kensington Market was a butcher shop. In 2019, it was the Hibiscus vegan cafe, and I sold them a print of this. 🤣 After that, it was the Big Fat Burrito. Presently vacant / for lease, probably condo soon.
