Grand Casino, Southport, Lord Street - questions ?
In Response To: UK Casino Photos and Chips ()

Jason,

You posted 3 photos of the Grand Casino, Southport.

Please can you tell me approximately when they were taken. The photos you have does not have the Mint Casino markings.

1. It was Grand Casino, Southport of George James who also owned the Kingsway Casino, Southport with the "Grand Bingo & Social Club" right after the cinema closed in Jul and the casino opened in Dec 1966.

2. Mint Casino was there with the casino license moved to the purposely built casino for Genting Southport this was the time when Stanley Leisure got into Genting which they rebranded - the Circus, Mint and Maxims to either Genting Club or Genting Casino.

Thank I will appreciate it if you could clarify my curiosity.

Thank you much.

PS I cannot find any photo of the Grand Cinema although it was built for a garage and car dealership, but the cinema opened Nov 14, 1938 and closed July 2, 1966 - no picture at all.
TY
