The Rex Berkhamsted 1938
The Rex Berkhamsted 1938
The Iconic Art Deco REX cinema was designed by David Nye in 1938. It replaced an Elizabethan Mansion House - Egerton House. My painting shows the Rex on it's opening day in 1938. My grandparents lived in Berkhamsted then, and often went to the Rex. I have their film log book listing all the films they saw.
I spent much of my childhood going to Saturday morning films at the Rex: when the entrance was where the Gatsby is now. I saw classics such as Star Wars, Bambi etc there.
