Peter took this from the junction of Hennessy Road and Johnston Road, looking to the East. The sign of the Rialto theatre, that had opened in November 1952, after the China Cinema had closed is visible on the right. I believe that the triangular(?) building just visible on the extreme left might be the Chinese Methodist church. (Andrew S)
