Pat Collins first showed ‘moving pictures’ at the Bloxwich Wakes Fair, in 1900, as part of his spectacular fun fairs. Collins set up what became the Showman’s Guild and was its longest-serving president. He was also a local councillor, as well as MP and mayor for nearby Walsall. The well-known ‘Bloxwich Showman’ died in 1943 and was buried in Bloxwich Cemetery. The ‘Pat Collins Memorial Clock’ was later erected in Promenade Gardens.
