Grace Graham's Kinema Autographs from 1965 
The front cover of Grace's collection
This entire page is dedicated to the memory of Mrs Grace Graham (14/10/25 - 11/06/13) who collected these 35 pages of wonderful autographs from 1965 when she worked in The Candy Bar inside the Kinema Ballroom. I'm much obliged to Grace herself for her foresight and permission and to her son Alistair Graham for contacting me to arrange the loan. I am greatly indebted to them both for their generosity in allowing me to borrow, scan, display and share this historical document with you all. Please note some of the signatures are indecipherable and are therefore, at best, my best guess. Also some of the musicians' names are missing and we can't know (almost 50 years on at the time of constructing this page) whether these missing ones didn't play that night, weren't around when Morag asked or whether they didn't like to sign stuff at all. There are also some which don't make sense ("Wullie" / "Buddy Ebsen" for example) - Who knows! If you know of the existence of other autographs or other memorabilia from the Kinema please contact me here. I can't pay you, but all contributions will be fully credited of course. Click the images to enlarge them. 
"Buddy Ebsen" (signed twice)
Buddy Ebsen was an American TV actor starring in 'The Beverly Hillbillies' and 'Barnaby Jones'.
Mystery one this - Do you know why Buddy Ebsen was in Scotland/at the Kinema? Tell me here.
